Wind goddess variations and new rival design

In the process of my character designs, the wind goddess has given me the most trouble. It's hard because there aren't many wind goddesses out there who are as distinct as Ra and Quetzalcoatl.


This version is based off of a Japanese painting.


I read about a wind goddess who rides on a ram, but decided to just give her ram-like features.


This particular goddess keeps a bag of wind, and rides on a tiger who walks on a path of clouds.


Also, I redesigned the rival of the main character.

First character designs

These are the very first character designs I did, of the kids, and a couple of the weather gods. The text is from another blog of mine, posted on April 5th.


I'm reaally still tweaking the facial shape and hairstyle of the main kid. But, I think those are most likely going to be the clothes. The other kid has the more pointy/sticky-uppy hair. Also...I need to figure out exactly what age they are. I'm thinking about 10 or so (which means I should draw them shorter).


These are based off of some of the original artwork from the Mayan (I think?) religion. But they were a lot more geometric. I kind of just took the original elements and modified them. They were two variations of the way Quetzalcoatl looks...I'll probably just end up blending them in some way in the end.


Again, I took the Egyptian hieroglyph designs of Ra and incorporated those elements into my drawings.
