https://mymagicgrandpa.tumblr.com/post/176351809397Okay, so I’m going to do this differently than the last one, I will still comment on every piece but instead of making one mass post commenting on all of them, I’ll make a post for the ghosts that didn’t quite make it to the finals, and then I’ll make a seperate post with the finalists before announcing the winners.

So let’s begin!

Cameo ghosts: These are ghosts that I felt would work best as short appearances, this can range from cameos, to short stories, to recurring characters that don’t quite spark a ‘whole chapter’ for me. All of them will be in the comic, rest assured, just with smaller roles.

Design: I think it’s interesting to see a more old fashioned ghost, she’s simplistic but you can tell right away what type of person she might have been and how long ago she came from.

Concept: The concept is fairly simple, but it makes me think of this little old preserved Pioneer town that we have around the area. The spookiest place there has to be the classroom, because it’s just this oooold empty dark classroom you can only look at through windows. I feel like she’d fit in really nicely with such a town, especially on Pioneer Day!

Design: This one’s cute! She reminds me of an anime school girl. I like the way the red scarf is floating around her, it could be interpreted as an indication that she was strangled or something similar. The heartbroken eye is a nice touch too, showing that there’s still an obsession holding her to this earth.

Concept: It’s another simple concept, but it still tells enough of a story to show why the ghost would stay where she is, a remnant left over from unspoken feelings, probably waiting for a chance to confess. I can see her being fairly easy to work with however, once someone actually finds her.
