Early Character Concept Art for Visual Novel

As said in my last post, I'm going to try and increase the amount of content I post on Patreon exclusively, and since I've been working on some things in the background, I figured I'll give a little sneak peak on the visual novel idea I've been brewing.
Now for those who might not know, I have experience making visual novels already as a solo developer (I technically am working on multiple at once) so thankfully I have a pretty good idea of how development goes. Characters and story are always the first thing to develop before you even try and implement gameplay or inflate your scope.
ANYWAY I'm sure no one is here to listen to me go on a special interest tangent about game development, so here are the early concepts I have of the 3/4 main cast. The 4th is the player, I'm not entirely sure what approach I'm going to go with the player besides that they are a healer.
But the general idea is as follows : "A party of four from the adventures guild go into a high level dungeon. They are mostly strangers and get to know each other better and more intimately during the quest."
There is a short overarching plot of the dungeon but I'm still on pretty early stages of solidifying the story and events that unfold.
Functionally, Byl is the group's tank, Gilbeu and Linos are DPS and the player is the healer.
As it can be seen in the concepts, Linos' is still slightly being figured out, but none-the-less I'm happy with how they look so far! Also Byl has gone through a few changes in the past year as I initially tried to make this about a year ago; maybe I'll reveal his original concept someday.
But, yeah! I hope this is interesting to some! If anyone has questions or ideas or even just comments of general interest I'd love to hear them!
I'll be posting development updates in the future, so if you like this sorta thing, that's something to look forward to!
