It's a BareBones Brigade Halloween!

I'm sad that I don't have something new to post for this year's leadup to halloween, but this is an illustration from last year that's still very close to my heart. Everyone on Caliosteo is here celebrating together, the patrol team, the former commanders of the BB Brigade, and even Joe Wildwest himself. What's more, it seems they all decided to collaborate and dress up with some BB Brigade flare (maybe it reminds them all of the good old days).

I remember working tirelessly on this one for a near month, and it was honestly a really fun project in hindsight that I wish I could replicate. I have the distinct memory of staying up all the way until Halloween morning making sure that it was perfect, and I wouldn't have had it any other way.

Since the image is a bit widely cropped and not the most "mobile friendly," here are some close-ups on the batches of characters scattered around Ribular Isle. Dina and Rupert sticking close together (as usual), Cole lashing out at Lester after finding out that he stole some of his hair dye (as usual), and Pauleen's Amargo acting snarky, Todd getting himself into trouble (as usual).

Here are also some WIPs from this one. This was the beginning of the phase where I started refining my sketch lining rather than doing a whole separate layer of lineart on top of an original sketch. It's honestly super satisfying, and I recommend anyone who likes drawing to try it out!

As for the lighting, when I do a shading layer I like to change everything underneath to be a solid white, it makes it easier for me to create realistic lighting in a 3D sense, almost as if I'm forming the shape of a sculpture. Plus, when it comes out like this before adding in color everyone here looks like a ghost >< (how appropriate)

One more thing, I made these little pfp icons to go with the Halloween vibe, also making one for Kris (one of the characters from my own Fossil Fighters sequel story). All of their last names are purely headcannons of mine, but there's still a bit of meaning behind all of them.

Being that I'm half Greek, I've always seen Dino and Dina as being short for Κωνσταντίνος and Κωνσταντίνα respectively (also because that happens to be my Greek name, where Dean comes from ><) so I think it makes sense to give them a Greek last name that may or may not also connect to something in my own story.

As for Rupert (still going with my own headcannons), both he and Kris originally hail from Bockland, a European-based Fossil Park that's just as big as Vivosaur Island/Caliosteo. Both of them act so posh and well-mannered, and I'd love to come up with a reason for imagining Rupert with a slight British accent. Kris's story comes a good 9 years after the events of the first 2 games, but she shares a lot in common with Rupert back when he was her age, much more than just being from Bockland.

Thanks if you read this far. I'm both happy and sad to be able to share and talk about this illustration again. If there's anyone here on Tumblr seeing this for the first time, then I'm very happy I can share with you.

I hope you all have a happy week leading up to Halloween night!

I don't remember the last time I drew him but I miss the character design of Fossil Fighters. It's so goofy but so charmingly cute

Interviewing Famous Fossil Fighters

Saurhead: Intense, but not forthcoming in the least about his personal life. Extroverted, but antisocially. Gladly states his opinions on other fighters, but maintains his legend by keeping mum on any details that could humanise him. Was known to have drunk heavily back in the day; has since gone straight edge, substituting exercise for alcohol. That's the extent of what's known. Used to be a little more open in his 20s, but has gotten more and more reluctant to give away pieces of himself since.

Joe: Overshares, unless his family is involved, in which case he tries to keep things quiet. The media knew for a long time that he had a son, but didn't even know said son's name until Dino was 10—Joe endeavoured to give him a 'normal' upbringing, and failed spectacularly at the 'normal' bit by giving him inflated, miraculous versions of the things most kids get ('wanna go for a holiday in Switzerland next week? Easy done!'). However, he tried as best as he could to keep the media out of Dino's life, and managed relatively successfully until Dino started to take fossil fighting seriously.

Otherwise, Joe will discuss almost any part of his life in an interview. As polite as he is, he lacks a filter, and can bounce haphazardly between topics. He's fun to watch, in that he's a very good actor, so can easily assume whatever guise will be most enjoyable for a viewer. Moreover, his acting skills mean that he can usually manipulate interviewers into asking more or less about certain topics, and he can generally control how he comes across emotionally. Since being possessed, he's grown somewhat more honest with interviewers, and has started being comfortable to show discomfort on camera. Has a supercharged, super-magnetic stage presence.

Stryker: Extremely circumspect. Never boring to interview, in that he's an excellent storyteller, so can often explain what he needs to with perfect narrative timing. However, he plays his cards extremely close to his chest. Over the years, he's become a little more open, perhaps as a product of growing more comfortable with himself, but he makes an effort to be as succinct and unemotional as possible. That said, he's very funny, and has a laconic gift for summarising events that makes him a brilliant guest on talk shows. Was very visibly nervous on camera until he was about 25, at which point he both matured and learnt that beta-blockers are an excellent treatment for stage fright.
