Description
~~~Cell-shaded with background comish of the coolest lizard around, Tokaga!
Wallah, I don't know how I did it. I'm running on one hour of sleep and a day at the MEPS, and I sit down and this happened. XD Anyway, Tokaga wanted an epic shot of his sona doing a parkour trick, upside-down in a city environment, and I had a blast working on this guy! Isn't he rad?!
I loved working on the pose and colours, atmosphere, and the little details. And I learned a ton doing that background. Wanted to do a speedpaint style one, and it's been too long since I've done modern buildings, hehe. And tabs to Tokaga for the pose the legs are in! He actually sketched it out for me since during the sketch phases I had him more tucked in, like a somersault.

This is really good! My only gripe would be that he kind of just... merges into the background. Except for his pants.

Nice art, and an interesting pose and character! What are those thin things hanging off of him?

Thanks! What things hanging off of him? You might be seeing the straps on his cargo pants.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, those are some very odd straps! Then again, I don't see cargo pants much.

Yeah, they're kind of like Tripp pants - they have lots of zippers and straps and sometimes chains depending on the style.
