Oh the first ever Moth boys, obviously my characters have changed a lot as people since I drew this, and so has my style of drawing them (hell that's different every time I draw a moth boys now a days.) Now a days Bow would be fantasizing about miss right, Jerald's ego is manufactured and he prefers the single life now a days, and Harry would never be caught smiling :=P

Still having some sizing issues with the second Moth Boys. We had our first ever guest star, Madeleine Ashcroft (Becca) who has a crush on Harry. I'm happy to say this spawned some God-Moding on Riss' part when Roxanne Weasley told Lucy Weasley that she was sick of Harry staying in the common room all day, playing his guitar and crooning Michael Jackson songs. I hadn't intended Harry to really know how to play guitar but the image was so funny that I ran with it.
Kind of figured out that it was better to sneakily break images into parts (which doesn't work on the current gallery format) rather than shrink the image to and illegible size. I effin' loved coming up with the penis jokes for this one. Special guest: Isabella O'Malley
There are several things I enjoyed about this one. I like the idea that a 14 year old like Harry is less than half the size of a 16 year old. It was an art style I did not stick with for very long but amusing none the less. And when I was thinking 'what would the spell to turn into a thriller zombie sound like' and then my brain came up with "ma ma se ma ma sa ma ma coo sa." *pats brain on the back*
To this day I STILL don't know how to draw Bow. I was basically coming up with everyone's outfits outside of their school robes and that. Showing people how I draw if I'm not bogged down by my inferior Wacom Tablet skills. Jerald doesn't look anything like his face-claim but that's because he didn't in my head either. There's a major disparity between the character design of Jerald before I came to Casuisrty and Bow Wow. I need to work on bridging that gap a little better in the future. It's not fair to make you guys see two different Jeralds in your heads. 
This one makes me sad. Ollie, Devon, and Kay-Lee's players have all left the site. Only Bow and I remain :=(
This is a dated one XD. 
The design for Jon that I stuck with. I'm going to change it soon. He's cool looking but he's too pale for starters, and too stiff. Jon's general demeanor now a days is more blank and bored than stiff and serious.
After a long stint without a wacom tablet I finally got a brand new pen and Moth Boys resumed. Back when this one was made Bow and Rosa were still having sex, Bow was trying to make it mean something and Rosa wanted anything but. Jerald was dating a girl called Saranath Shadow who (I don't mean to sound sour grapes) ended up being every bit the mary-sue that we thought she was and her creator was a bitch who was keeping the secret than another member was posing as several different members on about 6 different accounts, and I think she herself was another member called Jacob. Jon's barmaid had a kitten called Sylvester that Jon liked to torture (he's bad with animals,) the barmaid was played by the member that was posing as several different people and got kicked out of the site. Jojo was getting drunk with Dom because being drunk gave him the excuse he needed to be openly gay. AND Harry was having emo-times because he professed his love to Lucy and she didn't feel the same way. As it turns out the Emo-Harry saga didn't end until I made a habit of re-reading Harry's fist ever thread. I had to make a conscious effort to remember who Harry really was.
The next guest star for Moth Boys was meant to be Cassie Lewis but I couldn't for the life of me think of a comic idea... so I drew her.
And then I drew her again. This is an illustration of a thread where in Jojo and Cassie sat in what Jojo dubbed the 'dressigloo' because they sat in side and Jojo expressed his sadness that he didn't have/ couldn't feel a want for a girlfriend (at that time he was in denial about being gay) and Cassie attempted to console him but he ended up bringing her down by asking her why she was kissing a boy she wasn't even in love with (he was very conservative back then)
