Description
This is my submission to =Sythgara 's Easkull Contest , which was held in the late celebration of her getting the copyright certificate her original race - easkulls. I think that alone is such an amazing achievement, especially with a race such as this! Congratulations :')––––
So here's Thoryniel (Thorn), son of the easkull general, a captain of his own regiment. I wanted to depict him in his younger years, contemplating his life at his favourite place, where he can escape the pressures of society.
I'm not an expert with digital but I feel like I'm slowly improving. I spent quite a lot of time on this piece, but I think it's definitely paying off. For the background and rocks I found a reference for both, painted over those and overlay my own colour scheme. I'm happiest with the way his head turned out; don't even know how much time I spent on this though.. probably more than 10 hours :')

Here the close-up to this piece so that you can see the amount of details.

... That is a Gundam lol head. That is amazing. Not what I expected for "captain awesome", though. I think you are! You'll be a master before ya know it.
I have barely even touched my tabby... D:

Psh. Wrong? Hardly! After all, tabby's are so soft. Who wouldn't want to touch one? ;D That reminds me. *touch* There. I touched it.

Well *I* was referring to a tabby cat. I was un-perverting your perversion of you telling me to touch my tabby.

Oh those colors are great : D And you've got the right idea too. Thorn is supposed to be sort of a figure to look up to. Has to live up to his expectations within their little society.
Love it

Thank you (: He seemed to me like a character who was far too serious sometimes; he really needs to take a break!

Thank you! It's a little loose on some parts of the image but I the emphasis should be on his face (: We'll see about that though!
