Oh Rocky. You and that bloody chain of yours.



Sometimes, I seriously wonder why I bother with that medallion. It's such a fiddle to draw all those little chainlinks. And to colour them. And to shade them. Still, it is one of the few distinctive aspects about Rocky as a design, so I suppose I should keep doing it - even though I've forgotten to put it in about 50% of his pictures before now.



I'm pretty happy with the way the anatomy came out on this one, though for the life of me, I can't work out how the hell his feet got so big. I suppose I shouldn't complain - it's not like I have any problems with big feet! - but they do look a bit weird when placed next to my other characters in the banner compilation.

I also decided to give him chequered-style boxer shorts here. There's something a bit laddish and jockish about those to me - they just seemed to suit him.
