im finding myself stuck

over the last few days i have decided to sit down and start sketching out designs for characters, however i am finding myself stuck in this rut were i cant seem to get my ideas down on the paper or come up with the right setting.

i think what im going to have to do is talk to kathy or derek for more advice about my choises :/
