Cellular Seoul design? <,< (Patreon)

I wasn't sure what to give Ellie to wear. Originally I had a modern salesclerk outfit in mind: T-shirt and pants with a name tag on a band dangling from her neck. My husband however suggested to turn the outfit more into a stewardess kind of an outfit, to make her look more elegant and serious. Well, either way was fine for me but I went with my husband's suggestion because this outfit looks more appealing to me and I thought it would be more fun to draw (call me egoistical XD)
I love the shoes btw. I have a pair like this too...and wearing them always makes me feel like Sailor Venus ;P
What I also like about this outfit is her blouse and how she uses it. Someone on GoComics summed it up pretty well: 'When buttoned up it's business only.' Guess Ellie is quite aware about her wardrobe after all ;)
The CEO: I mentioned that earlier too, his design shows pretty well how big 'One Piece' was an influence on me. It was not intended as such but he looks a bit like the character Franky. To my husband he looks more like Spandam tho XD If I would color him he would either have blond or grey-purpleish hair.
His name, Newt Racker, was more spontaneous and is thanks to his lower jaw and teeth. He looks like a nutcracker. So we wanted a name which kinda sounds like it (although 'Newt Racker sounds more like the German word 'Nussknacker' rather then the english one). I wish we had his design before we started the arc. It would've been fun to play off of a character who has the title of a nutcracker: Due to his looks and due to his methods in how he deals with employers who are 'nuts which are hard to crack' ;))
