Bitter Panacea Character Sheets

Hi there! This is my first assignment for my Graphic novel class, which was to draw three character sheets for the story we intend on using for our projects this semester. I decided to do few scenes from my Bitter Panacea story, which I've had in the works for a while, though I haven't decided on the scenes yet. I'm exceedingly self conscious about sharing my story concepts in class, but I guess it's something I ought to get used to. I figured this would be a good opportunity to practice to drawing my characters (and their ludicrous outfits) consistently. Anyway, I guess I'll give some brief character bios:

Name: Silas Talbot
Alias: Ashura
Sex: Male
Age: 27 (actual: ?)
Height: 6'1”
Ethnicity: Arab
Occupation: Trading company owner
Hair: Dark reddish purple
Eyes: Amber Yellow
Skin: Dark, warm in tone
Build: Slender/sinewy, extensive muscular definition.

Name: Alan Esler
Sex: Male
Age: 30
Height: 5'11"
Ethnicity: Irish with some English ancestry
Occupation: Apothecary/Researcher
Hair: Red
Eyes: Indigo
Skin: Fair, pinkish
Build: Moderate muscle definition
Other: Freckled cheeks, burn scarring over right side of body

Name: Euphemia
Alias: Vasiliki
Sex: Female
Age: 25 (actual: ?)
Height: 5'8”
Ethnicity: Greek
Occupation: ?
Hair: Dark Turquoise
Eyes: Orange-red
Skin: Olive
Build: Slender

Hope you like them. The story takes place in England near the end of the 18th century, though I'm taking some pretty obvious liberties with the historical accuracy of the costuming (y'know, for funzies). We'll see how badly I end up lamenting all those rufflies and whatnot after drawing a few pages. This the first time in quite a while that I've done any traditional drawing, except for thumbnailing and rough sketching.
