"Come one, come all! Let the flames hypnotize you as they dance through to the skies by my command!"

Definitely not one of my best works shading-wise, but I think I did pretty good nonetheless. I'd like to know your thoughts, so don't hesitate to let me know! Oh and YES THERE ARE PUPILS. The goggles' shine blocked it. This is Randal, the fire breather of Belegorn's Flight Rising clan. I know the pose isn't necessarily "cocky", but I think his defensive stance and smirky expression gives it the same feel. I had lots of fun sketching this, along with the flames, but the shaaading. It killed me xD
