I had the idea for this guy for a while. His design was already in my mind when I drew him. He has elements of other characters in him. For example, he has a mane like my characters Snarl and spots like Deazel. The arrows are taken from an old character of mine, Arrow the Kitsune. I never really used that character much but the arrow idea was neat so I used it here. His back feet were supposed to be like those of monkeys but I'm not very good at drawing them so I had to change it. He has opposable thumbs on his back feet as well as front and is a very good climber, preferring to be up high somewhere. I shaded him in odd colours to make his fur look sort of pearlescent. Coridor can shape change, he can become his natural form; a liquid entity and his body can vary in length when he wishes. Thats about it really. He's like a sinister dark idea who plays pranks on people and appears round the corner when you least expect it.
And that was the main idea behind Coridor, who I first drew June 10th 2005. I had the idea a while before then though. I wanted a character who was far out and funky, reflecting a little of my personality as most of my characters do. But also something that was a little mysterious and strange. And so Coridor was born!

Twizted Tranzizter
Coridor has a band. The name? Twizted Tranzizter. The music? Electro synth 80s style metal and my inspiration was music by the band, Less Than Jake and the anime Initial D's music.
Coridor is the lead vocals in the band and he also plays secondary guitar.
Sterreo plays bass and sings. He'll also play keyboard if needed.
AvistA is lead guitar and singer.
Meo is keyboards or trumpet.
Spyke is trumpet.
Katnip is drums.
Lazarus sometimes joins in as a singer.
They can play different instruments and do different jobs depending on what is needed for the song. Their gigs involve pyrotechnics from AvistA, Coridor and Sterreo turning to their natural liquid state and showing off around the stage, ultra violet and black lights, large screen videos behind the perfomance and neons.

The first pic of the band I drew together. You can see them doing their usual jobs in this picture. I had this printed on a mug too. This is what the band looks like most of the time.
And this is the cover of their first album, Battery Acidd! I still need to do a songlist for it. They do have a poem kinda thing though....
Coridor and Sterreo let the funky music flow
Pull it up and let it go
Twizted Tranzizter stealin' the show
Ya got Spyke on trumpet, Katnip on drums
Meo on keyboard havin' some fun
AvistA on guitar blastin' out a tune
Playin' those riffs, rockin' out the room
Coridor's the words,
Sterreo on bass
Every gig they do is tearin' up the place
Twizted Tranzizter, aint no better band
Got a rep for rockin; right across the land!

Coridor My first picture of Coridor. You can see here the weird way I shaded him and also his rather interesting feet. He gets his colour from my favourite colour, purple. Quite a few of my characters are purple, you may have noticed.
Created with Crayola coloured pencils, my current main medium, with a computer added background.
Coridor Coridor on a pole, showing how his hands and feet work. He's very good at climbing. Another picture I had in my mind for a while before drawing out on paper.
Created in Crayolas and computer again.
A reference sheet for Coridor showing his body structure, little facts about certain features of his body and showing his varying body length and natural liquid form.
Please excuse my hand writing, I'm an artist, not a legible writer and I have a problem with writing too fast and the letters coming out messy.

This would probably make a very good t-shirt design. It was a weird pic to draw certainly. I made the writing spectrum because I couldn't decide on what colour to make it so I made it all of them. It's just Coridor being his usual weird self!

Coridor My first decent computer created picture in a long time! This was an experiment with gradient shading in Photoshop. I usually use Coridor as my test subject for shading techniques and trying out new ways of drawing. Which is a bit silly, given the fact that he is reverse shaded but oh well. I am very happy with this!
Drawn and coloured in Photoshop.
Sometimes I got bored at work and sketched things in my notebook. Here are a bunch of Coridor sketches. Since I'd only drawn him once when I did these, there are a few mistakes. His mane is supposed to start on his neck at the base of his skull, not his forehead and I spelt his name wrong as well.
The first sketch is a shaded one, the shaded ones look better. I also shaded the fourth one too. The others are just doodles, also experimenting with poses and such. Notice his short legs in the third one! He's in some kind of weird pose in the second one and walking along in the fourth.
I like the first one best! Also I think its the first picture I drew of him with his mouth open (useless fact number 12!)
All drawn in blue biro, although black is my preferred doodling tool.		 Coridor

Coridor's cousin, Sterreo Coridor's cousin, Sterreo. He was inspired by the 80s and the bright colours and crazy hairdos of cartoon characters back in that era. I kept with the arrow theme since they are the same species and tried to do the clashy wacked out colours similar to Coridor, keeping Sterreo's design about as complex as Coridor's.
