Description

When I sat down and started drawing this guys just came out of nowhere, so I have decided to make him my newest OC. I haven't made one in a while, been to busy not drawing... But now that school is out (FOREVER!!!) I figured I should try and draw something and that happened to turn into this. Sadly I didn't have time to think of a name and came up with one on the spot, hopefully it doesn't sound horrible.

I would also like to say that the only change to this picture from the photograph I took of the original was a slight increase in contrast. I managed to shade like that on actual paper! (very proud of myself for that, most of my traditional stuff sucks...) The tools I used were:
Pencils (2H, HB, F, B, 3B, 4B, 8B)
Artist Pens (0.3mm, 0.5mm, 0.7mm)
Standard White Eraser
Paper Towel + Toothpick (I didn't have a Stomp...)
White Paint Sharpie

This was the first time I've felt like an artist in months! I hope you like it :icongrin--plz: Also, any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated!!

I am not one who reads manga, but I do enjoy the style of art! I am always envious of those who are able to draw from their own imagination, because I am very visual with art - and must look at an example. I am envious with how could you are at shading,drawing hair. Both - I am pretty horrible with, but I am slowly improving.

One thing I think could be fixed - I find his head to be slightly larger than it should be, and his neck a little wide. This may just be my style.

I apologize it has taken us so long to give you your critique. We have many new things coming to the group, and we needed the time to bring them to you.
