Description Hate pencil hatching. HATE. Damn it is hard. ;.;

I swear, I started out meaning to do just a quick, halfway decent sketch of a some random guy in a jacket. But he decided to be a PUNK-ASS BITCH and took me all week - I probably should put this in traditional art because of that, especially since I just flat-colored this, but whatever. Now he wants to be a character and have a name and stuff. I think he should have a weird name, like Owl or Attic or something. Or maybe he can just be Punker. I kind of like that on him. X3 I think that even though he looks like a punk, he really has a secret addiction to weird cute alternative music like Deerhoof and Architecture in Helskinki, because I have a few songs of theirs and love them and want an excuse to download lots and lots more weird cute alternative music. XD Oh, and he's not Jewish, he just likes the star of David design, and that pink pin that you probably can't read says "AIH" for Architecture in Helsinki, for aforementioned reasons of him and me both liking them. X3

I like his eyes. They look kind of like *sorskc or *wiredgirl eyes, and those two draw beautiful eyes, so that is a yay.

This [link] is what a quick, two-minute sketch version of him would have looked like - and that, friends, is why Hokuto does NOT upload quick sketches to DA. EVAR. Not even to scraps.

Background is a tone from [link] , put through some filters because a background tone stretched from from 72 dpi to 300 just does NOT look good.

Okay. This dude is friggin' hawt. *Pets the screen and drools.* This is so totally a fav. I mean, not only does his hair rock my face off, but his outfit and all the detail you put into it makes it all that more amazing. This is wonderful! Keep up the good work! ^_^

I agree on the pencil hatching, but this is still cool- love his expression, and his hair.

There's one star of David on his forehead (it's partly hidden by his bangs XD), and one on a pin in his jacket.

Thank you for the lovely comment!

I have a question, Hoku. Why do you suddenly have the '=' next to your name?

Well, if you're subscribed, you have an option in your profile to be a beta tester and see new features before they're released - if you have that checked, you get the equal symbol.

I'm a lousy beta tester though, I haven't found any problems yet. XD

I meant to comment on this earlier but I just forgot.

I like your hatching. It's hard at first, but the more you do it the easier it gets... And I like the way you style looks with the hatching in there.

Great colors, I like the background too. Nice textures you've put about there with your pencil strokes and filters. Nice work.

For some weird-ass reason, my computer never shows me your thumbnail pics, so I click on fullview. This would be fine and good and dandy, (and is fine and good and dandy cos I get to see al lthe sweet details and all) but I don't have broad band and it takes so friggen long! I'm going to time myself one of these days....*waves fist at slow connection*

ok, rant over..This guy's design is AWESOME. I love his hair...and that look. Those eyes are just friggen gorgeous. And GREEN.

Wow. I just noticed. He's got a cigarette! How very Punky.
Cant wait to see more of this guy! *awaits*

Good job with the pencil work, he looks super-delicious. ^^ That jacket of his is especially well done, and I also love his face and expression. The plain colouring works well in this piece too, since there's all that pencil shading underneath. :3

Uh... Architecture in Helsinki? Never heard of them. What kind of music do they have? *likes weird alternative music*

hokuto In reply to Perynne [2005-04-04 21:02:07 +0000 UTC]

It has odd, odd lyrics that do not stick in my mind, and lots of odd little sound effects and things like that - they sound really nifty. I wish I could describe it better, I have no real ear for music.

And actually, the symbol on his cheek isnt jewish, is Arabic and Islamic. A star of david is a 6 pointed star.

I know, but the ones on his pin and his forehead (admittedly the one on his forehead is half-covered by his bangs ) are six-pointed. Thanks for your comment and for noticing that, though.

it reminds me of the singer in Gorillaz. Good job on the background. It looks really windswept! good for you for keepin' on keepin' on with it!

azarath [2005-04-03 17:47:12 +0000 UTC]

Whoa, he's awesome! Hm, punk style but he likes alt. pop music?! Dude, he's my long lost twin! 0_0
Therefore, i shall name him Jaques, after an Of Montreal song, b/c by your description he would like the band. (and i think you can find the song on here: [link] ). Or maybe "Seth" after the lead singer of Fluid Ounces [link] but hey, i tend to name people after songs/musicians too much. But both those links have lots of free MP3s to download since you wanted more cute alt. pop to download (and while you're at is, SELF damnit! [link] ).

Anyway, i really like him. I demand you do more with him. demaaaand!

hokuto In reply to azarath [2005-04-03 18:46:47 +0000 UTC]

Oh, rest assured there will almost certainly be more. XD Me and ~ hiddentohru spent a couple of hours last night talking about him and giving him some friends to be in a band with and crap, so whenever we get time I am sure there will be RPness.

Plus he is liking SELF. X3 *just went on a spree*

I didn't know it at first, but so ~ hiddentohru and I ended up plotting. XD He's going to be bass.

Ahhhhh, I love plotting. And I am so glad you like him. AND THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE LINKS they are nifty. He really likes those songs, especially the ones by Of Montreal.
