Sketches! Gypsy Circus Delight!

Hurrah! sketches! For my novella!
Gypsy Circus delight!
This anna! kinda looks like her but not really....

DJ is the main character, who is having gypsy identity problems.

No idea why but she made us do it on green paper. Being a comic I really have to exagerate features so its obvious to the reader which character is which. so in general the sketches aren't a very good likeness. i just take my features and amplify them to my liking. bwahhahaha. I'm like an evil genetic scientist with a pencil. so no one is allowed to be offened, ok!? Or i just won't draw you. Or i just won't tell you I'm drawing you... eh heh heh.

The story so far:
Irina (thereal gypsy boss slash lion tamer)
Anna( the gypsy princess)
DJ( the quiet sad gypsy)
Paola (the one that gets shit done. Fortuneteller?)
Sydney (the exotic dancer)
Grace(unicorn tamer)
Miles( tall awesome dude.)
Robert (beard dude, musician)
Kara (navigator)
Suzi(exotic dancer)
Gary (musician chello)
Colin (musician mandolin)
Joey (musician flute)


In short there is a gypsy circus traversing the country side looking to entertain people. One member of the tribe is not as merry as the rest of them, she contemplates her meaning as a gypsy. They arrive at a new city that welcomes their fanciful festivities. Dj meets a small child completely enthralled with the gypsy ‘magic.’ She is slightly brought out of her funk but then is depressed again when she sees their decrepit rundown circus, but the little girl doesn’t see it like that. This makes all the difference.

It doesn't seem like much but I have to shove it all in 5 pages.... wish me luck!
