#5 Lis’a Roan

#5 Lis’a Roan (science fiction)– Lis’a is the engineer aboard the starship Foxfire One. She is a strong, opinionated woman that has some deffent ideas on how things should run (“Everything has its place”). Naturally she is mechanically inclined, with a talent for growing plants (one of her ways of “getting away from it all” aboard ship), and reading up on nutrution and health books. Her husband is Jason Templar (see post #4), the captain of the starship.

Lis’a is part of my Foxfire One series of characters. She is loosely based on my wife ( though my wife would point out that Lis’a doesn’t look like her much). For the Foxfire One series I’ve stuck in a number of injokes. One of these is the use of fox images and references. Lis’a Roan’s name is one of those examples. Lis’a ( that’s Lis_a, not Leesa) is the Polish word for fox. And roan is a color usually associated with the color of some horses — a red-brown. So in a sense, Lis’a Roan, means “red fox”.

Hi Gang!! Here I am for my third go around with this art challenge. I have high hopes to finish with at least 30 new characters this year. Last year"s schedule was hectic for me, so I only did 16 drawings. And while that number doesn't count it here; it does mean I already have a dozen characters waiting in the wings, simply because I didn't have the time to draw them out. Onward and upward!!! There seems to be a few new things happening this year: there are a lot of people who started early, and a lot of them are damn good. This latter should encourage all of us to churn out better characters and art as the challenge wears on. Good luck to us all.
