Can't think of a better title...This was very spontaneous...From inspiration and idea to completion, it was completed within two days. It came about as a result of watching a couple different anime, then randomly hearing a song about a circus...so I sketched something, and started drawing it, and listened to a mixture of things like 'Cirque du Soleil' music and the 'Coraline' soundtrack. This was the result...^^;

He's from the circus (obviously), and perhaps he acts as the ringmaster; he's young, charismatic (probably somewhat colorful and flamboyant as well), and maybe a little eccentric. And of course, I'm sure he has his secrets, as do most circus performers (particularly in a world where supernatural or fantasy elements are involved). What those secrets are, however, I'm not entirely sure yet. From what I can tell from what I ended up drawing, he wears a lot of bells, and his eyes have a reflective shine when in shadow, much like a cat or a wolf. He also has an odd way of holding the cane - he tends to hold it backwards, or upside-down.

I haven't figured out a name for him yet...or for whatever circus he's a part of. I'd be interested in hearing any suggestions people might have. ^___^

... I looked at him for a bit and thought: "Guy Temple."

So I don't know, but he looks like a Guy Temple. LOL.



Or even a Skylar. or something. *shrugs*

I think this character would be served much better if you cropped in on him a lot more. His details are getting lost because hes so small in the canvas.

Okay. I went ahead and cropped it some, and I also sharpened it a bit. ^_^ Any better?

Wow. Definitely digging the costume design! Great execution in digital painting, too, with the folds and shading. I think the costume really reflects on his character/personality.

Woop, suggestion time! His cane resembles the designs of Egyptian scepters; maybe his name could be something like Was or Anubis?

Thank you! ^_^

Heh, I hadn't even noticed that...but you're right, it does. XD Anubis...or Osiris (the underworld) or Set/Seth (chaos)...hmm.
