Sorry for the delay in posting again but between internet outtage (Already fixed at last), and the holiday season as well as a small gig I got paid for and last but not least just being unproductive with Hoi4 I worked on this rather half-assed. haha

Well it is just a sketch. A character concept that I wanted to draw for a new story I want to work on in the near future. I kinda got a name for this character but it's most like a personal placeholder. So I'll call this by its current title. I've also decided to experiment with a different type of coloring technique. A "cell-shade" kind of coloring I think it's called. Again I was mainly experimenting to get a feel about how I could do this in a more efficient way. I feel like despite being a lot simpler than my standar coloring style that I've been used to, this has taken me more time to pull. But I blame that to the fact that I'm trying something new (and also because I'm still a little rusty when it comes to painting).

I kinda like it but I also think that if this is gonna work for more detailed projects, then I need to keep practicing and try to be careful about it. Maybe a blend of this and my usual style could yield good results. This style of work could also be used to create a base with which I could animate characters with "relative" ease in After Effects if I so choose. If there's anything I like about this is the way the hair turned out. It could still be improved upon but I do like it. I might actually paint hair that way from now on.

The portrait in the bottom was... huh.... a piss poor attempt at making a more comedic expression but since I've never practiced those I'm kinda bad at them. I gotta practice that ore often as well.

Anyways you guys have a look at this and let me know what you think.

I will be doing a few more practice runs and experiments with cell shading as well as concepts before I go back to work on the usual stuff. I still have some sketches of drawings I want to work on. For now I'll keep these concepts in the folder where I keep all my main drawings but eventually in a few months I will move these to Scraps.

See you guys on the battlefield and a Happy New Year you filthy animals. xD
