Description Whew! THis one actually took some effort on my part!
Sure hope the colours come out okay...
Anywho, I scribbled this image on a 30 by 45 piece of paper in art class yesterday. Kind of like a follow up to , "Yng Bld Sldrs." ...I don't know, I'm just in soldier mode I guess.
Trying out different techniques.
My mother said that the white breath would ruin it, but I kind of liked it.
Hope you guys like!
p.s. I have no idea why, but the phrase, "Flutter me dovely" came to mind when I was working on this...Weird eh?

love it. great style. the colours came out really soft and pleasing.
i just love the geometry of the face. i think the smoke or vapour or white breath or whatever adds to it, regardless of what your mother says.

I really like this. Its a bit different than a lot of your other works, but I like it, all the same. The rosey cheekness is wonderful, and I really like the white breath. His eyes rock so much. Its all very well done. X3

HWA! *falls out of the sky* I FOUND IT!!! and I didn't even have far to look.....

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll bet people tell you so all the time BUT OH WELL!!!! IT'S SO GREAT!!! For some reason... when I look at him, I think of the Airforce... 0.o dude....... they should really make their mascot into a butterfly man...... but then i guess they'd look like sissies or something. Bah. Butterfly men kick butt.

The white breath works just fine with it, I think. Little details like that always help to build tone. I love the blue light effects reflecting on different parts; it looks very cool. The red nose and cheeks are great, too.

I adore the title, personally. Reminds me of a character called Bold Silence who I have a soft spot for. The colors are just lovely, as is the style. Overall, this is just nice, interesting and stylish.

Don't bother! He was a character created by my fiance. He's not in any published work...
