Here's my submission to Foolish-Hearts ' Creating Fate Raffle !!
... That's over a month overdo

This is me, trying my hand at replicating the "Do This In Your Style" section of the raffle.

I had entered the base part of the raffle and started working on something for the second part back in mid November. Sadly, with my busy winter schedule and other mental health issues, I just couldn't find the ability to complete this before the January 1st deadline. However, I was close to completing it by then and I couldn't forgive myself if I just abandoned it because the raffle was over. So I kept working on the last of the coloring and putting everything together when I was able, and decided to post it anyway as a gift instead of a raffle entry.

But here he is!! I had to do this in three stages since the background file did something weird and the brushes didn't work the way they were supposed to. So the background was one file, Seb was another file, and then I pieced them together and worked on the finishing touches as a third file. I think that ended up working out better for me in the long run.

This is also the first time I've ever drawn Seb, and his nose shape and nose bridge were new for me, so I hope it translated okay into my style.   Also, it was fun drawing and coloring the tonal staff! (You can tell I'm still working on lighting on a metal surface based on how the staff versus the tuning fork look. I definitely studied the original pic to see how Foolish did it as a way to help improve my lighting and shading on clothing- and boy did I take some notes for future artworks! But I still had tons of fun taking an awesome badass picture of Seb and seeing how I'd replicate it into my style, regardless of how long it took me.

Digi, you are an awesome person and I am so happy I met you through your story- and more precisely, a scene art with Seb in it!! So basically, if it wasn't for Seb, who knows what would've happened!! So of course I wanted to help you celebrate 5 years of the Creation of this Dwemer nerd!! I hope this was a nice pic of your OC to make you smile!
