Good Little Devils

When Help Comes From Hell

GLD: City

Original animated series, ages 8–12. Created, written and illustrated by me.

Three little devils leave Hell without meaning to, land in a city they don’t know and end up helping the people around them, not because they want to be good, but because they don’t know how to do anything else.

The Little Devils

Kai, the heart. Neo, the mind. Jin, the action. None of them is enough on their own, and that is exactly the point. Alongside them, the Mini GLD: same line, same palette, same horns, body reduced almost to just the head. A system that sets the main characters apart from the crowd without breaking the unity of the world.
GLD: Alex and Lisa

Alex and Lisa

The two human protagonists, twelve years old, next-door neighbours. A different graphic register from the little devils, held together by the same line and the same palette.

Sketches

Black-and-white studies for the secondary characters.

Sketches: Signore Oscuro and Lucrezia
Sketches: Dc Pyre, Mordek and Nyra

Building a Character

Seven years of evolution of the three little devils: from the first stiff, elongated figures to their current bodies, through colour tests and the choice of a black outline, which gives structure to the silhouettes and holds the palette together.
