Artist's Comments

So the likeness isn't 100% there, but I tried a little sumfin different with this one. Instead of just going straight from the photo reference, I decided to draw him out first and a little more stretched out, because I had this layout in mind. I didn't rock too much detail with the lighting and shading... I wanted the colors and the composition to be the focal point I guess.

I'll post the pencil work too so you can see what I mean.

Definitely worth a +fav. Looks somewhere between your comic approach and the tight vectors. Good mix. I like lots!

Yeah I drew him a little more 'stretched out' because the original sketch I put down worked out better if he were longer.
