Cool panther dude!

A true soldier.

Man, you weren’t kidding about your skills improving, Samson looks awesome this way… and incredibly sexy, too!!

Yup, improvement with a lot of practice.

Any chance we can see some “Before and After” uploads sometime after you’re done redesigning each character?

Actually I have already thought of doing that.

Kewl, I look forward to seeing more of your progress.

Cool

Cool!
Wonder how many characters of yours will be changed)

All of them.

Interesting)
Can't wait to see Kyle, Jason, Tyson and Jackson)

They will be coming later.

Samson looks new and improved, EJ! Nice job!

Even better than before.

Roger: ......Why Samson... have you been working out? 0_0 *blushes*

Samson: You know I have. You and Darius are the two who always notice any change on me.

Roger: *puts back of hand against forehead and swoons*

Samson: Drama queen. *takes his shirt completely off* The things that I do for you. *picks Roger up*

Roger: *giggles stupidly, tracing a finger along Samson's pecs*

Samson: I knew you were faking.

Roger: Oh I could *NEVER* 'fake' with you! I actually am pretty light-headed... *giggles stupidly again, still tracing Samson's pecs*

Samson: Liar. You're just as bad as Darius.

Roger: Darius and I will have to teach you a lesson later on.

Samson: Whatever this lesson is, I already know that I'm going to be losing my clothes.

Roger: Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

Samson: I knew it.

(OMG Samson always sounds so SERIOUS. Do you ever wonder why I mess with him so much? XD)

Haha, I see why. Samson is a tough one to break. XD

So...considering it's only been about 1.5 years, it's more changes than I expected...the heavier boots, sleeker pants, more detailed shirt, and...I guess more...mature facial anatomy? I like the rugged eyebrows and hairstyle, and while I did like the cheekruffs, the whiskers are a cute addition. All looks great!
Now get that dang shirt off him, you meanie

I have been wanting to do this for a long time now. I finally made myself sit down and draw them. It took awhile, but I like them.

I'm trying to add more details too to my art, such as detailed clothes, better anatomy, and more facial features.
Haha, you're the first to notice his whiskers. I kept adding them, taking them out, add again, and take out again. I finally decided to add them, but as short whistles only.

Honestly his new hairstyle is based off your Cody. Remember Cody had a flat top haircut, then later he got a more stylish cut. I did the same with Samson. I also used your art a inspiration for more detailed clothes. *hug*

Haha, don't you worry. There will be a lot of shirtless Samson. XD His fans and boyfriend would not approve of him covering up all the time.

Glad you got all the updates together at once, it looks great! Definitely shows that you're putting the effort in, I usually gloss over clothing wrinkles and stuff so you're doing better than I am!
I think I noticed the whiskers once or twice before, but they work particularly well here.

*hugs* I see! I actually have wondered though if I'll do another hairstyle update for Cody just cuz it's been awhile, but I can't really find anything else that fits.
I guess my only question here, though, is that the hair and clothing are obv less military-inspired. Which is fine, but does that mean he's, uh, retired or whatnot?

Yeah, there is always room for improvement.

Actually this is the first time I ever featured Samson with whiskers.

I think Cody's hair looks fine. But it's up to you if you ever find a new hairstyle.
You're right, Samson is retired. He served 20 years in the Marines, and retired as a Major. He now works at a Marine recruiting office. He still wears his military attire at work. But dress casual outside of work.
