And today's turn is for the would-be comic relief (if his job wasn't so serious) Archie. The same race as Sween and Jason, and probably the oldest of the three (though he sure doesn't act like it). In New Days, Lei will comment he is like a male Sween.

The scanner butchered this picture in a rather strange manner, chopping the colors and adding a lot of red (the funny thing is this pic doesn't contain any red... What looks like red is actually orange). Of course, for such a carefree character, straight lines don't apply.

Just like Jason, Archie is a secondary but recurring character in the Forbidden novels. He didn't have too much stage time in Forbidden, but his role in the second novel, New Days, will be quite impressive.

I'm also becoming quite tired... I don't think I've painted four days in a row without rest--maybe in my teenagehood, but not making a whole pic a day... Maybe I'll need to take a break soon.

The specifics:

•Time taken: Approximately three hours.


•Media used: color pencils, pastels, micromarker and pencil. Cool white high quality drawing paper.


•30-day trial: Day 4/30, July 8th 2018


•Technical notes to self: Gotta take notes of what does the scanner do to each color...
