A new character has appeared in the Galactic Dragons universe!
Well, there’s going to be a lot of new faces now that the crew has found the lost colonists, however Molly will take the center role in this new arc.
Molly’s character is based off of the comic character “Molly Beans”, by Dan Sacharow, which can be found at http://www.MollyBeans.com
Molly’s character came to be as I was trying to figure out a way to thank Dan for the YouTube comic review he did for Galactic Dragons in 2017, which can be found HERE.
I was blown away by what an amazing review he gave, and I still blush at all of his kind words.
I told him I’d love to create some fan art of Molly Beans as a thank you, but I’m not that great at drawing humans. Dan responded,
“Well, how about drawing Molly as a dragon?”
And then it occurred to me: why not make Molly a guest character in the comic? I needed a female role for the engineer who was to be the unofficial leader of the imprisoned colonists. What better choice than Molly Beans, who is a brilliant engineer, strong, determined, and not afraid to speak her mind?
Plus she’s cute as a button with awesome hair! I couldn’t think of a better role model than Molly Beans, and she’s lots of fun to draw as a dragon!
I considered making her a flesh-toned color but it looked a little weird, lol!
Thank you again, Dan, I hope you like dragon Molly! 🙂
Stay tuned for more Molly Dragon and the next adventures of the Tempest crew as they work to escape X-F3!
If you are in the Ann Arbor, MI area on June 16 and 17th, stop by the Ann Arbor library for the Ann Arbor Comic Arts Festival! I will be at table 32, stop by and say hi! This will be my second time tabling there in Artist Alley. Last year I met a lot of really nice and very talented people, it was such a great time! There will be attractions all around downtown Ann Arbor! This is a family friendly event and there’s a lot to do! For more info, click the link HERE!
The Artist Alley runs from 12pm-6:00pm on Sat and 12:30pm-5:30pm on Sun!
I’m super excited (and a little nervous, I can’t lie) to be tabling at Motor City Comic Con on May 18-20, 2018, at the Suburban Collection Showcase in Novi, MI!
This is only my third show, so perhaps I’ve jumped into the deep end kind of fast but I’ve loved this show for years! I’m sure I will learn a lot while having a lot of fun at the same time.
So if you’ll be at the show, stop by and say hi! I won’t get my table number until the show but I’ll be Tweeting as well as posting on Facebook and Instagram (DanaDrawsStuff). Hope to see you there! There’s going to be a lot of great celebrities, cosplay, and lots and lots of great art and comics!
