Description WARNING: TO ALL FORTUNE HUNTERS, BANDITS AND T.R.A.P.

Beware the new power generation that is The Grand ASHWORTH Fortune Guild!!! Approach with great caution if you happen to encounter a member of the TGAF Guild! Be especially careful if you are getting in their way of finishing a mission or acquiring fortune!




Heya everyone! Elson 'Darkspeeds' Wong here. ^^

I finally finished it! You can know have a better picture of what the TGAF Guild is like. I actually took some time out to design the logo! What do you think?

You may notice four new characters that were introduced recently. Now you got an opportunity to know their colour scheme. ^^ As for the character in between Ruby and Ash, he's a character I had informally introduced through concept sketches.

The following members of TGAF on this shot are:

[From left to right, background to foreground]

  • Raspberry - Mrs. Strawberry's twin sister and bartender at TGAF Guild.

  • Geena - Very little is known about her... She happens to be skilled in assassination arts.

  • Ma Fei - A master practitioner of martial arts. Probably the only one in the guild who's strongest in this skill set.

  • Healix - Top mechanic and enthusiastic inventor. Don't be surprised to see him here and there fixing things around the guild.

  • Parmir - In his BEAST form. Looks pretty cool when he's serious about protecting the guild he belongs to.

  • Laurine Glory - Priest with a gambling and drinking habit. She happens to take her winnings and donate half of it to the local church and the other half on her drinks.

  • Ashworth the Wombat - The only wombat in the guild. Probably the only one in town as wombats rarely leave their family circle. He is initiating Nature's Synthesis.

  • Retty - Cunning thief but can get a little greedy sometimes. He needs the money desperately for something...

  • Ruby 'Locke' Steadfast - The newest member of TGAF Guild. She was introduced to the guild by Ashworth the Wombat. She happens to be shocked and excited about the amount of power this guild holds in it's members.

  • Elana - One of Great Leader Sandra's top students. She harnesses Light magic which can only be challenged by Dark magic.

  • Great Leader Sandra - The one who is currently the tender of TGAF Guild. She has a great responsibility to look after the members here at the guild. They are very much like her children and will do whatever it takes to make them realise their true potential.

  • Leon Denoir - One of Great Leader Sandra's top students. He possesses Dark magic and is determined to become the next leader running this guild.


    Well I'll be off! I'm going to spend some quality time with family at the farm stay in York (which is an hours drive from the city). I'll catch you all back on Monday! Take care and keep up the awesome artworks on DA community!

    I'm curious, I know this guild has been scrapped but do all the characters still exist?

    Most of them will be making it to the GRAND HUNTER series. Some character roles be introduced differently in the new story.

    Well, I look foward to seeing them. Though I am a bit curious as to why Pramir got an age and species change.

    It's just the way it goes for concept building, treat TGAF as a build up to GRAND HUNTER. Not everything in TGAF is entirely official.

    not even Captain never smile would put his crew against this mighty force. The entire guild is combat capable right? and why didn't i see any of them minus Ashworth and Ruby on the comic's site?

    omigosh! when i first scrolled this down i thought that guy in the middle was Ashworth O.o i thought he was on steroids ^.^ then i spotted him on the right side.

    lol please tell your charas to stay away from steroids ^.^

    Sketched-Chibi [2007-12-16 13:16:24 +0000 UTC]

    damn I dont know even where to start That's some serious effort you put in there
    I never thought of Elana (I still remember you gave Marine that name in your youtube video LOL) having "green" hair, she reminds me of Medusa - A woman with green snakes for hair in some Roman Myth, but I thought Elana would have orange or blonde hair XDDD

    The whole group reminds me of Xmen LOL, y'know the group of people with special powers and the old-almost-bald woman/man leader XD

    I just realised Leon reminds me of Yugi from Yugioh (I used to watch it on Cheeze TV with my neighbour before her mum drops us both to school in the morning) with the egyptian jewellry and shadow power, which reminds me of the Shadow Realm thing and the Millenium puzzle LOL

    I think you remodified Geena's face a bit, she looks different to the other picture when you displayed your new designs of most of the characters ages ago. I also wonder who is the bandit guy next to Ash and Ruby since he must play some role since he is in the pic for some reason o_o...

    Anyway not-faving this would be thtoopid, so

    Ruby would have to be the one who'd caught my eye when this'd finally loaded I mean, look at her expression! Is she shy on being infront of everyone, or by just looking at Ash's Power?

    Wow! This is looking great! Especially the background! Must've taken you awhile to come up with something like this

    Oh! And look at that Logo! I like how you did it Hope it'll stay that way!

    I can't find words to describe the amount of awesome-ness I see before me. Group pictures are always the best. In a way, they let you see all the characters and how different and unique they are from each other, like color-scheme or even by their pose and/or expression^^...hm...ya know, this would make a great poster! I'd buy it for sure! Everyone looks bad ass! *tries to read Ruby's thoughts* Hm...

    *awestruck* "Wow...amazing! Such incredible power! Am I worthy to be a member of such a powerful guild...?"

    Something like that... Hm...Elana and Leon are Sandra's top students?

    She harnesses Light magic which can only be challenged by Dark magic.
    He possesses Dark magic and is determined to become the next leader running this guild.

    Light and Dark...top students......I sense rivalry perhaps? Anyway, have a great time with your family, Elson. ^_^ Breaks are nice, so take advantage of it! You work a lot.

    Why thank you Stephie. Yes that is exactly what Ruby would be thinking at that very moment... I mean who wouldn't if they joined a guild like that for the first time?

    I was thinking about selling these COLOUR WALKS as posters but I don't have enough to give it a range to those who want to buy it. I'll wait until I have at least 50 and also at least when the comic has reached up to Chapters 4 and beyond. *thumbs up* ^^

    Oh and yes I sure had an excellent time with the family. ^^ I shall continue with my next COLOUR WALK! *inks Slaah, Duke and crew*
