Drawing a character will really make you take note of their character design.

Like, for example, Jericho.

I just realized that his hat in both designs are very wide. Like sir, why does you hat need to cover your shoulders. And also Jeri has some more stuffing in ‘im in his new design. Likewise, tho, his old design seems more…idk, human? Like, he has an actual neck and shoulders. And his head is a more normal-ish shape, rather than the empty burlap sack it is in his new design. Idk, it’s the little things

#this is also how I learned about Gideons yellow eyes #and Marius’ poofy sleeves in his new design #or hell even torbeks tiny ears #I never took note of any of these details until I started drawing them #idk I find it interesting #legends of avantris #edge of midnight #jericho sticks #anyway speaking of drawing #I have learned that my motto when it comes to drawing faces is #’if I don’t look at it it doesn’t exist’#I mean yeah I have to draw the face EVENTUALLY #but I’d rather spend two hours tediously drawing every feather or strand of hair #than try and figure out how the fuck do I draw the face #which btw is why Marius and Gideon’s faces look so odd #I had no idea what to do with their faces and I lowkey hate it #i mean im happy with how I drew Marius’ everything else. but I almost wanna go back and redo his face.
