#8 Ino that girl

Evil Emperor Nick on Aug. 20, 2007

Over the weekend Amy & me went on a rollercoaster marathon at the local amusement park. Amy had been wanting to go to Cedear Point our local amusement park for weeks and we had were really excited as we drop down. Sadly after only two coasters it started to rain and it looked like the end for sure for after we got off of our third coaster they began to shut down rides. The whole rest of our group decided to pack it in and go home. However Amy and myself decided to be troopers and try and wait it out. At first we just went on some small carnival style rides which were the only thing not shut down due to the on and off again rain. Our patience was rewarded however for one of the roller coasters the “Wicked Twister” was still running and it was attempting to set a park record for number or riders in a single day so we felt obligated to help. We rode that thing 9 times, oh was it ever fun! Anyway the point is, you shouldn't give up on things to early else wise you really might miss out.

Ino was originally Menu & Claire's forum game daughter, however I quickly decided I wanted a fox character and so Ino got schedueled an over haul before she even had a name. It was harsh on the poor girl. This however really worked out in Ino's favor. Normally I write in a bottom up fasion, meaning I have the story, the characters, and the looks all worked out in my mind before anything is even taken to concept art. For Night School I had to work completely backwards starting with the characte art, then developing the characters and finally writing the story last. Consiquently characters whom I found visually dull or unappealing tended to get the short end of the stick. Luckily for characters like Zoppy & Ino Amy picked up on this fact and help rework some of the neglected characters. At this point I'm pretty happy with our class designs and Amy is happy I'm not leaving anyone out on my half of the writing.
