Seaglass Lore (Patreon)

Since the comic's debut and the name of the gem having already been pretty much revealed, I'll go ahead and give you guys some extra behind the scenes stuff! Her character sheet is not yet going to be available (because I haven't made it yet...) but I wanted to share some of the beta development sketches of her from a long time ago.

First up: Seaglass 1.0!

In her original conception, CG had different 'hair'. I had always known that at least part of it would involve that little 'bulb' - which is meant to resemble blown glass - because I wanted to callback to the fact that the gem ship crashed basically right on top of where she had been buried, and she was exposed to a lot of heat!

However, one of the friends I had shown the design to early on pointed out that some of my... less mature readers... would no doubt take it upon themselves to be the funniest person in the room and point out how... phallic that looks, so in the end I decided to change it.

I ended up liking this hair a lot better - it actually resembles Steven's half-bun look a lot, which is a bonus, since she's his kid!

And yeah, she was always meant to be tiny. :)

Thanks as always for your support guys! Keep bein' cool.
