Quixotic is in fact my longest waiting client, and been really terrific about waiting nearly 5 months for both his pieces, well 2 months through missing the first queue and these past 3 months while I've been changing styles and learning more.

Today I'm finishing his second piece, after reading a lot of Pat Lee material, I'm inking him up nice and loose, and then going straight to color...

Here's my reference - link

Stayed tuned for more.

PS: Dark Lilac, sorry to keep you waiting too, but I have to finish this last piece, and then you'll get the rest of the week. It's the only way to give your final the attention it deserves. But I promise it will be worth the wait!

The very first drawing I sent him, a month ago took about an hour, it was just the same head you see here and outline of the body, very light lines showing the costume details. Today the inking took about 3-4 hours, and actually I'm still working on it trying to make the background more dramatic...

The final color will take at least 4 hours if I'm lucky...

That's really developing nicely! Looking forward to seeing the finished piece.

I like what you did with the background! The character was super the first time, but i was wondering what you were going to do with the rest... it really works well though!
