Character Contest 40: Southern Fried Heroes
The contest was to design characters inspired by the American South. The emphasis was not supposed to be the American Civil War; rather, Southern culture.
Still, couldn’t resist creating the Grey Ghost. The real Grey Ghost was Colonel John S. Mosby. He had earned the name for his late night raids on Union supply lines. He and his troops were expert cavalry. They would ride into a camp unexpectedly then slip into the woods “like grey ghosts.” Granted, the binoculars the my Grey Ghost wears are modern.
