Commissioned Art of Farrco
After Spellbinder was successfully done by AR Sullivan, I had Farrco commissioned! He was either going to be the easiest character ever or the hardest to get done. This is because Farrco is very geometric, static, and has more ‘elements’ to him than any other character. But he is static so there’s no pose question. He just is and my drawings of him are basically on point with articulating all of his aspects properly. I also knew what type of background I wanted (a desert) this time.
In the end, the process was very easy and AR Sullivan rendered Farrco accurately and beautifully!
Initial Sketch
It is Farrco! There were only proportion and like some orientation things to work out, but all very minor stuff. I drew an edited version of the sketch as usual to help articulate my feedback. Main things were the eyes, increasing the gap between his front and back legs, and tweaking the ‘groin’ red area. Plus some color and size changes for other areas.
Updated Sketch
Boom! This is Farrco! The feedback was done. Although the groin area was done to what I thought I wanted, I realized it didn’t look so good with a harsh triangle, so I asked for it to be less…intense angle-wise. That was my only edit.
The background changed because I was looking for a different sort of desert…the type of desert this sketch uses!
FINAL!
And here Farrco is, fully rendered and incarnated into a professionally done art form! He looks great and looks like he’d go right next to Spellbinder and the others. Very happy with Farrco—this is absolutely Farrco! Thanks again to AR Sullivan for bringing another one of my characters to life.

Commissioned Art of Spellbinder Casting a Spell
As the other commission of Spellbinder didn’t go so well, I craved to get Spellbinder done again to hopefully a better end—to make it right for her and for myself. So, I set my sights on an artist who seemed like they could do both the fantasy and sci-fi side of Spellbinder. I landed on AR Sullivan after looking into/contacting a few artists. I wasn’t sure if I’d find ‘the One’ at second try, but….I think did. Really happy with...
