Yee~ He's looking a lot like Cloud and APH's Denmark here... ^^;

But normally his hair is a bit more slicked back like Germany's and Netherlands', and he's normally not so happy.

The Main Character for my latest idea Wonderful Whimsical World of S.C.H.Ö.N. - Schuyler Manfred Von Himmel.

The English spelling of his name is 'Skyler', and his last name Himmel is the German word for 'Sky' and 'Heaven' - obviously you can see that I was playing with the word 'Sky/Heaven' for this character because he is a Pilot.
His middle name Manfred means 'Strength' and 'Peace', and that was Germany's famous Red Barron's first name (Manfred von Richthofen [1892-1918]).

(the name Schuyler does have meaning though - it's Dutch for 'Scholar' )


He was born the day when the First War ended (11 November 1918), and starts off as a cheerful child who wants to be a Pilot like his Father Hartmut who was K.I.A. in WW1, and wishes to fly away into a world where there is no wrong and no war (pretty obvious why - he's growing up amongst the ruins of War and had never met his Father).
His older siblings Angel (Sister who's ~5 years older), Micheal and Gabriel (twin Brothers who are ~10 years older), and his Mother Diana gave him a hard time for playing around and wanting to be like his Father, so Schuyler was sent off to a strict Boarding School with hopes that he'll return as a Doctor, Lawyer, or Engineer.

Fast-forward twenty-odd years later into WW2, Schuyler is not only an Engineer but also a Pilot protecting what's left of his tattered country.
His personality has also changed - no longer cheerful and playful, his time at the Boarding School made him very stern and unforgiving (just think of everything associated with the word 'Nazi' ^^; ).

One day, the young Pilot is out flying for a mission to bomb Allied Forces, and the clouds start getting thicker than usual.
Schuyler tries to radio for his coordinates, but as the clouds clear up, he enters a strange world full of mayhem.

And that's where I'm left off in my idea...

The Line Art was done via Photoshop and Illustrator (except for the balloons - I copied and pasted a clip-art pic of a balloon 5 times, added in strings, and smoothed out the lines) using my Tablet; coloring was also done in Photoshop.


Let me know what you think as always. :D
