Honen carrying Deuce Koma. Technically, this is not from any canonical RAU Gallery scene, but I drew it shortly after I got the idea to have Deuce fall in love with Honen. I was curious to see what they'd really look like as a "happy couple". Heh.

This was my first attempt at making that drawing. I messed up and had to start over again.

This was an even earlier attempt at this concept. I didn't finish this one because I didn't like the way it was turning out. If I hadn't gotten it right on the third try, I may have abandoned this idea altogether.

Conceptual art of Honen Calzoun giving Cirrus Razeena a flight lesson. I had the idea for Cirrus in my head for a long time. This was the first I'd actually drawn her.

Colorized version used for the RAU Gallery main index page.

A couple of drawings that I started and never finished.

Conceptual art of Honen preparing to fight while protecting Cirrus. Honen may be a comically incompetent villain, but a threatened Oni can still be a very dangerous thing indeed.

Honen carrying a magnometer, as seen in Archaeological Thingamobobical Part 1: 20 Seconds to Nowhere.

Composited with Nucleo McRaven and Image Arcane. The final result was simply too big to completely scan. I chose to cut off part of Image's elbow because cutting off the other side would have meant you wouldn't be able to see the magnometer, which was more important to the scene.

This is also from AT1: 20 Seconds to Nowhere.

Composited image with Image Arcane, Nucleo, and the vortex created by the ancient hard drive. Click here for a larger version that also includes a computer on the right side. (The computer had to be cut off because it made the drawing too big to fit on 800 x 600 resolution.)

Honen chows down on some stubborn wires in AT1.

These are all the same drawing, scanned at different stages of development to show how I created the scene of Honen getting shot by the Metal Gear in AT1.
