After showing the turn table I created for the first two main characters to my peers and got positive feed back. I also asked for a response to which logo I made looked the best and I dove into Adobe Illustrator for the first time in about three years and created the above image! Cracking open Illustrator again after having not used it in so long was a bit of a struggle and I do not particularly like the program so the icon took much longer than I would have liked. The scale with eyes is the combined symbols for two of the godly figures known as Guardians in the setting of Conflux, the Gazing Guardian and the Balancing Guardian. I chose this as the webcomic’s icon for social media because the Court of Candor, the core ecosystem that characters will be in, is dedicated to those two gods who oversee all their actions. Being satisfied with I have for now I created my twitter account dedicated to the comic and the Webtoon space.

I also added a lineup of additional characters that can appear in the comic! I wanted to expand into people who would be hanging around the Court of Candor and what their personalities might be like. As well as thinking about the influence they may have on Ceri and Avrin.
In addition I received feedback on my map of Noru Downsy and added some more details to the map. Working on this I realized I never uploaded the full map to my blog and wanted to do so! I am still chipping away at this large map and thinking of what type of environments might live on this continent.
