Living with Indians 01

Chapter 1

Where to start?
I can remember a lot of things, how these two indians came into my life...
I was in college, making graphic novels/ illustration studies, there were works to do of course and for those I made a lot brainstorming, had a lot of ideas, characters coming out of my pencil, lots and lots of ideas... And this was just the beginning... I hope I'll have the time to do work on everything...
Of course there are characters and concepts I'll have to drop, but there are so many I wish I could finally give life to!

One of the reasons for this many concepts is the fear to see my original ideas -the ones I had before college- being stolen, which pushes me not to use the best stuff...
Somehow the one who became Little Dark Cloud got her way to two works... At the time she was alone...

Even after I created Red Puma, none of them appeared after that...

How did I create these two, what came to my mind, I don't remember...
As a kid already I liked indians, I had an indian costume, an orange one with an eagle on it...
Years later I received a book about indians at school, some price for I don't recall what exactly...
Also my father used to read to us when we were kids the adventures of Luky Luke those of Jerry Spring and we had also some old comics with cowboys and indians.
But why I created those tow? Something must have influenced me... Whatever... They already had the same personnality as in the story, the same look more or less, one influenced by palefaces, the other one more traditionnal. The colors were also well established in my head. And then I moved on, to other things, other projects...

But me being me, I kept all the ideas I thought had potential, I swore I would use one day... The were part of those ideas... After I graduated, I started other studies, graphic design, at first it was to learn 3D, but then it went just to pre-press... For the jury I proposed myself to create a publishing house with a catalog that would be filled with my own comic books... One of the porjects of this catalog would have been those two Indians...
Proposition refused...
After I graduated I thought I could start the work, finally...
