Sorry to bother you at such a late hour, but I wanted to quickly ask you something before I pass out from academics-induced exhaustion.

I was wondering if I could get some design help (and concept art perhaps?) for three OCs of mine? I wouldn't be able to post them here because of guidelines, but I'd like to be able to get some advice from someone that blends motifs seamlessly with appearance and maybe get some quality art out of it. Sorry if this sounds condescending in any way, shape or form; I've been trying to watch my tone, but I'm never quite sure if I've succeeded or not. I'm a pretty blunt person, admittedly.

Anyway, the three OCs I've been referencing are named Heidi Jekyll (obviously from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde since Hyde/Jekyll aren't monsters as MH might insist), Thorian (he hails from Beowulf, but I'm unsure if he'll get a last name) and finally Christine (who has some design elements I'll reference shortly, but not a lot of them; she's from The Phantom of the Opera).

Anyway, Heidi is obviously the next Dr. Jekyll and the only design element I have for her is that she wears a necklace (the type with the thick black cloth thread). At the end of the necklace, there is a sea blue vial filled with a clear liquid, referencing the tonic in the novel. Beyond that, I got nothing. ^^"

Thorian is even more bare since all I have is that he's crippled in some way: either an arm or an leg. That's about it, but he's the next Beowulf, so maybe that'll help if you decide to help me out.

Finally, there's Christine. You know those golden comedy masks? She wears one that covers her entire face. Why? Her face is disfigured (well, her mouth) and she hides the disfigurement so she doesn't scare people. I REALLY don't suggest you drawing said disfigurement, hence why I won't even mention it. Beyond that, if you help me, go wild because I got nothing...

The final member of this quartet (Luca) isn't mentioned here because they actually have a decent design and I don't want to overburden you by asking you to draw them... I'm awfully pleased with the design I came up with for them, but it sapped my creative juices, so don't expect much else from me for a while. n.n

Well, thank you for listening to my long rant/plea and I hope you'll help me! If not, that's ok!
