November Sketches (Patreon)

       Sorry, that first extra is coming a bit late!

I spent quite a bit of time trying to find something that motivated me. Tera's hair is messier than usual because I was going for a 'just woke up' vibe. Had to redo it twice cause guess what, your character's haircut is a part of their features and if you change it too much they don't look like them anymore :notthis:
I almost gave up on this because initially, I wanted something quite rough and sketchy,  in the end, I 'refined' it a lot, was happy with it, but then I let it sit overnight to come back to it the next day with fresh eyes... the next day I thought, "...omg what was I thinking it's ugly??" and wondered if I should move on to another extra or try to fix it. Fortunately, I managed to correct what was bothering me, and now I find Tera very cute and good looking, phew-

Oh! also wanted to draw Tera with facial hair like he didn't shave. Not that the character will have a beard, but what do you think? Are you more in favor of bearded Tera or shaved Tera? It's pretty subtle but I love both-
messed around with the white touch too.

See you soon guys! Thank you for the support <3

PS. I was scrolling through my B&W files and it's funny how I think Tera's physic 'mainstreamed' itself? (I mean I DID it lol). His features have never really changed (just my style improving over time), but, for example, he used to have a face much more worn by life, more battered, with marks under the eyes. Now, he has a much younger and well-groomed appearance. Which fits him very well.
I added an old pic for comparison! Yikes.
