ARTISTS: BE BRUTALLY HONEST

Well, here it is. This is one version of a couple of character concepts I have of my fursona.

Once again, I have him sporting casual clothing. But I really love his wardrobe here; it’s simple with a good theme, and it’s noticeable but not too in-your-face. I've included a couple of emotions for practice and for fun. I didn't necessarily colour the expression shots in all the way as I ran out of room on the paper for his full-body shot and the text. Speaking of which, some text was edited/re-written with Photoshop as the original one had a bit too much information about me that I was writing (i.e. my full birthdate), and I just wanted to take extra measures.

Yes, I am aware that I have a lot of hair for my character. Yes, it was partially influenced by both Goku and Sonic. Yes, I'll try to work on that; later commissions that I will (soon) post here will show other artists' conceptions that make my hair look way better.

Other than all of that, I really like what I've done here. I hope I learn how to draw good muzzles and fast. That side view with the circular head looks fug-ugly; but I drew it that way at the time, so it can't be helped.

And notice that I didn't call this drawing a reference. As I've learned from customer service at , it's not really a reference because it lacks any side or ³/₄ shots of his full body thereby not living up to the definition of a reference. But it is a good character concept as I'm establishing a general idea of who my fursona is and how he behaves. Until I know how to draw a body way more properly, I highly doubt I'll draw a reference of my character anytime soon. And even if I did, it still wouldn't look good. If there's any artist out there who can help me, please show me the ropes.
