Richter Haywood: Final Design


I've been kinda strapped for ideas for this blog, which has been leading to missed updates. I should do some short comic strips or something.


Richter's changed quite a bit. Like in /Draft, he's not supposed to be taken seriously, but this time it's because of his personality, not because he's a dimwit. In an effort to separate him from his drama-llama persona from /Newtrul, I'm basing him somewhat off of The Comedian from Watchmen, and the button on his jacket is reminiscent of him, though its design is actually taken from Transmetropolitan.

I sort of based the whole outfit on his hat. Upon realizing that none of my characters wear hats, it seemed a logical step, but it came to serve a purpose. It allows Richter to keep his hair out of his face when fighting. In other words, he's a better fighter this time.
