IMPS: MAKO page (Patreon)

some color protoype. these are the weaved in outfits that show a transition of color. i didnt want to draw all the little weaves, but its made that way. using a mix of dye and feather interlace, it is a bright layered and frilly outfit for dancing and festive ceremony. its just a prototype but its the first for now. the blue green heavily contrasts his skin, making him very colorful 

you can see mako as a prime adult having many many tattoos, his status as a warrior lends him with many achievements and tattoos to show it. his back, arms, thighs, and hips are decked out in meaningful stories. he earns them between 10-20 years. though those designs are far from perfect or the way i envision it. but he does have a shark tattoo on his thigh symbolizing his name, but also his warrior acclaim. at one time, mako did fight with a large shark, and hunted it for the village, where they had a 3 day celebration. the skin was especially used for mako, where he was given new clothes.
