Description Hullo. Well this is my submission for yesterday. We're traveling back in a time rift as of today.
It's a little sketch I did on a friend's house. I didn't have mechanical pencil or eraser or anything, so I took a little generic pen and a piece of paper and started sketching.
The character on it is Juancho Gonzalez, shadowrunner and mafia goon. (You probably remember him from one of my past uploads.)
I am still struggling to make him look better, and more futuristic. I was playing around with his belt, armor and the way his cloak buckles up around the waist. (I gave him a rigid belt adapted on the fabric instead of the regular leather band that wraps the waist on coats.
I also gave him some piercings on his face, because I want to emphasize the fact that he's more into the occultist stereotype than a regular runner or thug.
I noticed with regular jeans the pockets are too small for his oversized hands, so I made the pockets huge to adapt to his hand size.
Please ommit the skull on his neck XD that was just plain random and is not intended to stay there on future Juanchos.
Hmmm... ah yes, I liked a lot how the little drawing of him that's viewed from behind turned out. He looks kinda cool there.

Okay ppl, waiting on your opinions, suggestions and critics!

Cya around.

If you're having trouble making him look cyberpunk enough there's this website that I use for costume ideas a lot, [link]

I like him, he looks a bit like a villain from an 80s movie.

XD Not 80s in a bad way. It's the shoulder spikes on the jacket and the chains, for some reason look just a little 80s punk to me. I donno, I like it, the back armor is pretty epic.

Yeah I KINDA caught the drift anyways XD.
I've always thought cyberpunk sorta looks not like "the future", but "the eighties in the future" . LOL.
I Love his back armor (H). Anyways, he don't need armor in any other body parts... He just gets a little pissed when people shoot him in the back.

Damn, I want to visit the future 80s.

I thought trolls died of bullets pretty easily too, it just takes a few more.

It takes quite a lot more. It's a pretty unbalancing feature of Shadowrun, In My Opinion. (Lots of Body equals lots of dice to mitigate damage... thus, there are times when guns and bullets seem to hit but bounce back off...)

More shoulders wouldn't make him look even bigger and more square-like?
