This is Archangel Barnaby, a concept from Ballad of the White Mage. I wanted to draw this for a long time, but I wanted to release him in story form first and give people a chance to read it. Without revealing too much about the story, Barnaby has ascended, been "purged of his grotesque form", and has been given divinity. This has nothing to do with Hazbin Hotel, by the way, in which another character ascended. This is by, and for, an entirely different reason.
Design-wise, I wanted him to be this perfect blend of alive and ghost Barnaby. I wanted him to have the warming and pleasant nature of the alive form while also maintaining the otherworldly, exaggerated, cartoonish proportions of the ghost form, maintaining that threatening aura. His base size dwarfs his ghost form, retaining all the powers of that form and more. I haven't colored him, but I want his appearance to be largely the palette of his living form but more gold.
Archangel Barnaby's body is covered in white, tan, brown, and gold feathers. He has living Barnaby's face with yellow eyes and gray beak and a nice, fluffy, soft plumage, but ghost Barnaby's overall shape, including elongated neck and generally long appendages. The most original aspect about him is his wings, which are purely seraphic white and gold with a hint of lavender toward the tips (think Safer Sephiroth).
His waistcoat is a pristine ivory white with hints of pink, lavender, and gold in the accents. I want it to be very fancy. His bow tie is tied into a nice bow while the ribbon lies in layers like a jabot. You can't see it, but at his waist is a belt and sheath for his mighty blade, the Divine Intervention. With this, he shall destroy all evil who threatens his friends and family.
I wanted to take on the daunting task of making a completely silly character like Barnaby a badass while still keeping him somewhat imposing and also loveable. I wanted to take almost every aspect about him and turn it up to eleven. I hope you like my concept.

Meet the Seven Archangels: Michael, Gabriel, Uriel, Raphael, Ambriel, Chamuel, and Zadkiel/Raziel. They’re characters I’m working on for a webcomic called “You Will Not Be Saved” about an alcoholic, absolute shit at his job guardian angel named Rhodes and his perfect saint of a human he has to protect, Barnaby. Hell doesn’t exist. Heaven claims Earth is Hell, but Rhodes looks at the bureaucratic nightmare Heaven is and begs to differ. Some of the angels are good. Some are not. All of them are batshit crazy. This comic is a little bit comedy, a little bit horror, and a lotta bit frisky angels and existential crises.
I haven’t drawn anything in YEARS so it’s been really fun working on actually designing something!

‘I did show him how to do it’ – Lindsay Kemp on David Bowie
Lindsay Kemp, the ground-breaking dancer and choreographer who inspired David Bowie, has died at the age of 80.Kemp was known to pop fans for helping Bowie create his Ziggy Stardust persona and teaching Kate Bush to dance.Director Nendie Pinto-Duschinsky, who was making a documentary about Kemp, told BBC News that he was “a force of nature” and still working until his death in Livorno, Italy.His spectacular productions combined mime, dance, theatre and cabaret.’Born dancing’Kemp was also known for his film cameos, appearing as a pub landlord in The Wicker Man in 1973 and as a pantomime dame in the film Velvet Goldmine in 1998.Born in 1938 near Liverpool, Kemp grew up in South Shields and quickly discovered a vocation in dance.”I realised that I wanted to dance when I first realised anything at all. I was born dancing,” he said.”For me dancing has always been a shortcut to happiness.”He first saw Ballet Rambert perform at the age of 17 and soon after hitchhiked to London to audition.

Kemp was described as “so charismatic, so full of life”
He won a scholarship, but needed to complete his military service first.Kemp told BBC Newsnight in 2016: “I had a fairly tough time in the Air Force, because I didn’t march… I danced.”He studied under expressionist dancer Hilde Holger and French mime Marcel Marceau before forming his own dance company in the 1960s.InspiringIn 1966, Kemp met David Bowie after a performance in Covent Garden when the singer was 19.”He came to my dressing room and he was like the archangel Gabriel standing there, I was like Mary,” he said.”It was love at first sight.”Bowie became his student and his lover, performing in Kemp’s show, Pierrot in Turquoise and gaining the theatrical inspiration for Ziggy Stardust.”He was certainly multi-faceted, a chameleon, splendid, inspiring, a genius of a creature. But I did show him how to do it,” Kemp said.

Episode 242: A Discussion of the 2017 Eisner Award Nominations
Earlier this month the nominees for the 2017 Eisner Awards were announced at the Comic-Con International website, and as Andy and Derek like to do every year, they're devoting a full episode of The Comics Alternative to a discussion of the nominations. On this week's show, the Two Guys give their impressions of the various nominees, both as a whole and on a category-by-category basis, making observations and trying to understand any trends underlying this year's selections. However, Derek and Andy resist the urge to play armchair quarterbacks, so they don't second-guess the six-member panel of judges or focus on what they would have chosen if they had been on the selection committee. As diligent comics scholars, they judicial and discerning in their commentary. At the same time, they don't shy away from pointing out a few inconsistencies and a few head-scratchers when trying to make sense of this year's nominations.
