Description
Trying a new style again.
Last time I made a poll in my personal fb account, my insta and Deviantart for the theme I shall use to make as an 'experiment' for this style.
So most of them voted to see something from the Malay World rather than Ottoman Empire related... and so yeah.. here is it.
Still don't wanna disappoint the Ottoman Empire theme voters, I decided to make a 'fusion', and boom! A Malay Malacca Empire delegation visits the Great Ottoman Empire around 1400s/1500s!
Here's a brief information, in case if some of you didn't know, yes, the Malay Malacca Empire have a really strong relation with the Ottoman Empire.
Well, ya know, I probably gonna use this style for the upcoming Ottoman Empire fanart series. What do you say?
And I'm sorry if this Malay guy doesn't look like a Malay lol, I already used to draw a European looking person... so yeah. XD

Looks more Arab (or Arab-Malay descent) to me but it's not a big deal. Where I came from the Malays have small/flat noses, swarthy skin, and not too much body hair, but it should still make sense for Malacca to have an Arab as a diplomat.
Looking forward to see him fight some Portuguese!

Yeah, that can be... This is just a practice anyway.

He looks like a Malay, just that he may be a Malay of Arab descent. Double points if he was a Syed (I think in my headcanon he would be an Alsagoff).

Perhaps he may be Zack Assegaf/Alsagoff's distant ancestor (or relative of a distant ancestor)

Well, this is nice. As a native Malaccan, I approve. Perhaps I can use to justify Malacca lasting to the modern day.
