Description
Zoom in please. There's enough detail.First I want to complain. I wanted to draw detail in clothing and this kid is high class trash and loves gold so I figured why not? I regret it, but lots of experience with different designs I guess. This was a lot of work and I bit off almost more than I could chew. It also doesn't help that I've discovered with this character I can't just sit down for 30 minutes and work, it has to be at least an hour.
Little more backstory on this guy and why I chose the design I did. He comes from a city called Gamelby in my campaign. It's was almost all Dwarvish city (90% dwarves) with elves being very very few and far between. He was found in a dumpster by a hooker and brought up in the brothel. He might look like an elf, and can speak Elvish, but he's a Dwarf hooker at heart who is filthy rich and knows it. He's incredibly vain and loves gold to no end. His previous pics he was wearing silver just simply because after 100 years he'd gotten holes in all his gold clothes and downgraded. In the campaign though he got Candy to spend 8 hours using mend on his closets of clothes and is back in business wearing completely different outfits everyday.
Due to him only special ordering from Dwarvish designers, his clothes would reflect that a bit more and have the more rough and sharp designs that Dwarves have.
On to his pose. Angwyn doesn't give two craps about people's furniture or about etiquette. He's just there to have a good time and make money doing it. Also, since his customer service skills are top notch and he understands that vampires can be a little off putting, he's constantly in motion, waving his arms around, fidgeting, just trying to make himself look more alive than he is. Also he likes wearing makeup to make himself look a little less pale. If all else failed he can magically charm anyone and everyone, but that's something he wouldn't depend on using all the time.
Since my group lets him into their house all the time (not like they have a choice). I assume he would have just come in, took off his jacket, grabbed some wine, and is probably 25-30 minutes into a 5 minute story about something ridiculously stupid. When I had to RP something like that in game for a quest, Angwyn got picked up, carried to his house, and chucked through a second floor window. All in good fun though, Angwyn wasn't even mad.

I don't think you need to list the last two references, most artists use them for character design ^_^; Good work here haha

No problem XD I use a ton of historical references but that's just so i get my designs historically accurate. It's a particular area of ... passion for me? Idk.

Oh don't worry I get it. I went to a castle in Canada and took a ton of pictures to use as references and then never used them -.-
