I had to draw up a model sheet for 2018’s Isis series books
Isis: House of Isis and Isis: Escape From Transylvania. In both those stories
Isis is featured in street clothes, not her usual New Heliopolitan Kilt and
cropped top. With the next four books set in the fall, it’s time for a change
of clothes.
When Isis is on the streets of Harlem she usually walks
around in blue jeans, a white blouse and a black leather jacket and black
leather high heeled Chelsea boots. Her ankh pendant usually sticks out of her
open shirt. As the goddess next door this outfit expresses her tomboyishness
and allows her to blend in at the same time. Plus, the jeans allow her to be
able to use her marital arts skills and move around quickly in a fight.
Decided to play with the hair a bit with this sketch to
better convey Isis’ regular hairstyle. Isis’ hair is a mix of straight Egyptian
styled bangs in the front and a big head filled with bushy curls in the back. Business
in the front, party in the back.
Also decided to do a quick head sketch to show how her hair
is filled with big bushy bouncy curls. Yeah, the Ankh pendant is a mess, but
what I was trying to do with this sketch is show how her hair is big and
bouncy.
Right now I’m outlining new Isis series stories and working
on a new Isis series adventure. I’m hoping to feature this design on the covers
of Isis: Escape From Transylvania and Isis: House of Isis later this year. But
all that depends on me getting enough donations to pay for the covers! You can help with a donation to PayPal or Patreon!
