Character Designers WANTED

Well, hello once again everyone. I have some big messages to let out regarding the witch characters of my Aozora's Adventure series. Turns out, the hunt for the remaining three members isn't going too well. I have been receiving many designs over the past few months from my loving friends, some good and some not-so-good. So I'm going to list the three concepts that I am currently aiming for dealing with these missing three characters, to ensure that everyone that wants to help me out knows what designs I'm scouting out.

Leader: ~*TAKEN*~ An extremely slutty-looking (sorry for my vocabulary) and well-designed 21-year old female with large breasts (well, not that large, but larger than average) whom in witch form wears an outfit that reveals a great amount (but not all) of her skin, and has large hips. Her main color is a combination of dark grey/black and violet.

Co-Leader: An well-designed 22-year old male with a oh-so-called "handsome" appearance and admiration for women, but not to the point where he is considered "gay" or "greatly perverted." His main color scheme is red & black, with minor uses of grey.

Third (standard) Member: A male badass (again, sorry for the use of slight profanity)-type person that is around 19 years of age. Similar to the co-leader, but different colors and appearance.

Remember, this isn't a contest. This is something I'm doing not because of my lack of creating good character designs but to give my friends and fans to participate in the series as a character designer and help me achieve the success I've always dreamed off, while like I said, sharing some of that success for themselves. As this isn't a contest, any design I receive (which shows both the character's two forms, or one on each image) will immediately be accepted into the series, unless I reject it for the character not following the qualifications above, or not being designed well enough (or not sexy enough for the leader).

So if you have enough time on your hands, or if you want to help a bro out and lend a hand, then I would suggest maybe volunteering and coming up with a design I could use that match my described predictions above. Of course, if you have much better things to do than help me out and design someone that I could use for my own series, then fine, do whatever you want. But if just so happens no one seems interested or comes up with any good designs that seem useful to me, then I'll have to try and create my own characters, which I don't want to do so everyone can have a chance to be credited within the series, but if I have to create them myself and struggle with possible faults and mistakes, I will.

Remember, I'm not forcing a single person to help out. I'm simply asking for assistance.

New Character Artwork

Hi everyone. Today I decided to draw up a new character from Aozora's Adventure. Well, okay, Not today, but I did start on it a few days ago and uploaded it today. Here is Adelvina, a member of the witch gang. I'll have her witch uniform uploaded hopefully soon, but as for now her is her normal form. Enjoy, everyone. :)

A somewhat important announcement.

Well, look who's back and ready for more action. That's right. It's time to update this site with a blog update!

For those of you that have read my recent Super Justin: the Blog and/or my latest journal entry over at deviantART should know I had changed the name of my series from Aozora Jitsuwa to Zora's Adventure. But thinking back, I decided to make a couple last-minute changes.

To be honest, the reason why the title was changed to begin with was because of how complicated it is to pronounce the series' title in full length. So I'll give you a quick little rundown. Aozora Jitsuwa is pronounced as "A-Zor-Ra," while Jitsuwa is pronounced as "Jits-Su-Wa."

So now the title of my series will be from this day forward, "Aozora's Adventure," while for Japanese audiences, it will still be Aozora Jitsuwa should a Japanese version of the series ever be produced.

And because of this, Zora will go back to being called Aozora. Now I can understand that his name may sound like a name intended for females, but I find it well suitable for males as well (I guess it does go with both genders). Plus, it perfectly fits Aozora's appearance and personality, as (according to billion) "Aozora" is a compound word from "aoi" (Blue, Aozora's main color) and "sora" (sky, the pilot's headgear he wears on his head and the wing logo on his shirt). If you find it unfitting to call him "Aozora", then feel free to refer to him as Zora if it's going to confuse the living heck out of you (I don't care). I plan on making a small amount of adjustments to his appearance and color scheme so he is placed in an outfit that better suits his gender, so hopefully that will come forth someday before Christmas, depending on how much desire I have to re-draw Aozora.

And for those not amused about the sudden changes to the series and Aozora's name, remember, this is my series. So therefore as it's founder, I'm in pretty much complete control of everything about it, and several of it's characters.

As for the contest, yes. It has ended, but I will still be accepting entries, which if I like the design, will immediately be placed in the series without judgement. I still would like to design the lead male and female myself, however, so as of the time I'm writing this, only two more fan-made witch designs can be accepted.

Well. That's all I've got for now.

Keisha + Sakaki fan-artwork

Hello everyone. I just though I'd let everyone know that I recently received amazing Aozora Jitsuwa fanart from gux-wrath-the-savior (Britly's designer), who I've been good friends with for quite some time. We did an art trade, and this was his part. I must say, it's gorgeous. Simply gorgeous. Take a look for yourselves. (warning: may contain Keisha's undies and Sakaki's rear end)

Aozora Jitsuwa Character Design Contest 2: Witches

Hello everyone. I am here to explain the main concept of this new contest I'm starting to help design another antagonizing group, that generally is a group of eight evil witches and will act as rivals to both Aozora, his friends and the Jetters, and the A.C.E.S. Each member will have two forms, the first being typical casual wear, the other being the character in his/her transformed state, when they resemble (somewhat) of a real anime-styled witch. (think Fumiko from Shikigami no Shiro, and Jiro from Black Blood Brothers, but much, much different.)

So here's how it works:
*You simply draw your entry in two outfits; the basic casual wear, and the transformed witch outfit. You are allowed to submit them one-after-the-other, but they must appear to be the same size and have the same hair/eye color. (in other words, same character, but different and more detailed outfit.)

*~NEW~ If you are only able to make the character's witch transformation, and not his/her normal form by the deadline, then I will create a human form myself of your entry should it be one if the winners of the contest.
*~NEW~ If you cannot draw the character in either form for the contest, you may write a written description of the character.
*The character's appearance must be appropriate (13+). If the character's privates are clearly visible and uncovered, your character will be disqualified from the contest.
*The character must be between the ages of 11-30.
*If you like, you may submit both a male and a female for the contest. It is very unlikely both characters will be accepted, but it gives you a little more of an opportunity of winning. (I'm not forcing you to do only one gender!)
*The character must not be holding or using a broom or basic black/white wand. If you want to make the character use a wand in his/her attacks, it must be well-detailed and at least half the size of a character. As for hats, they're allowed, but please be creative with those as well.
*If your entry does not fit the requirements but I still like it, I will edit it myself in my official concept artwork when (that is, if) he/she gets drawn by me.

Simpliy put, take your time, and put as much effort as you possibly can in designing your character. When you're done and your character is ready to be entered, contact me in any way or form possible on my deviantART account (Comment/Note), or send me an e-mail with your submission if you do not have a deviantART account.

The deadline will be September 3rd, 2010, but the deadline may be changedd for any reason. If something happens where I get very few entries by the deadline, I might end up starting another round of the contest, just like with the Jetter contest I held last year.

Once the deadline passes, I will then rate each entry based on their overall appearance, and the top 8 will get to be in Aozora Jitsuwa, and all related media (games, manga, animations, anything). The first and second place winners (1st being for females only, second for males only) will be declared the main leader and co-leader of the gang. The third-eighth place winners will still be in the series, and will receive average-sized features.

So, I wish best of luck to all those that are entering the contest. If you have no desire of participating, you can always help out in naming the witch gang, since I haven't actually come up with one as of yet. ^^;
If you would like to spread the word about this contest, please do so.

Fanart by Liquid10

Hello. Today I am here to feature a piece of Aozora Jitsuwa fanart done by a friend of mine named Liquid10. The other day, I had requested to do something special for my upcoming-at-the-time birthday, and he completed it the day directly after that special day. To be honest, it's a good piece, as it simply is a gang of Aozora's friends, family, and mortal enemies. It's brilliantly colored, but besides the green on Redd's outfit being too bright, the only problem I see is that some of the characters are not the correct size. (Aozora, Britly, Kokoro, Zidra, Redd, Beta, and Simon are too small/short, while Club, Heart, and Joker are too large.)

But anyways, I'll leave you with the full image to see for yourselves.
