Description Some concept stuff for Instead of Going Up (which isn't up yet, but will be hopefully!)

Mercutio Vondrasek is the kind of guy that had to work his ass off for everything in the beginning and now would kind of like to take it easy, thanks.

But we all know me rather well and thus we can conclude that Mercutio certainly won't be able to live in peace, hahaha.

Named after the Shakespeare character (obviously), and is not a re-imagining of.

OH YEA! Extra doodle here! Since I was playing with what he'd look like with short hair haha.

This is an interesting character concept. I like his clothes, specially the jacket and vest (?).
The name choice was nice, and makes him sound fancy, haha!
I wonder if I could get more information about Instead Of Going Up...

I kept seeing your Mercutio in your avatar. I gotta say, I really love his design, and, if you hadn't said he wasn't a reimagining of Shakespeare's Mercutio, I'd say you had created a perfect design for him!

I adore the name Mercutio, and just was looking at a comic five seconds ago that also had a character named mercucio. I seriously hope there's a revival of shakespearian names.

Woo! I've always loved that name, but never managed to work it into a story.

Hey, question: you have a ton of charas and they all have great names. Do you come up with them yourself or do you look them up? (Personally, I like 20,000names.com [link] )

HysteriaBound [2010-05-11 10:19:16 +0000 UTC]

His expression kind of scares me a bit. He looks like he's about to go do some punching or something.

But I just realised another reason I'm excited for Instead of Going Up- the last names! Your characters always have really interesting last names.

I actually just wrapped up a production of Romeo and Juliet at my college (I played the Prince), and when I saw this deviation in my messages, it made me want to go back and do the show again. I wish I had been Mercutio, he's one of Shakespeare's greatest characters.
