Young Man with his Ottsel
Added 2020-01-31 16:01:03 +0000 UTCHello everyone^^
In between offical workad art academy, I manage to squeeze in some traditional drawing here and there, like I mentioned when I said I wanted to draw some of the characters from my favourite Video Games/Movies that made my childhood^^ This mini series now continues with Jak and Daxter, the amazing duo from the game with the same name. However, I decided to focus on the first title instead of the following since "The Precursor Legacy" was the first game I ever remember to have playwed and it was when I kinda got a crush on Jak xD
So, in the first game of the series, we see how Jak and his pal Daxter go to explore a forbidden place, resulting in Daxter turning into a socalled Ottsel. Only later in the series, we experience why and what that means, but for now it's just a funny plot twist for both of them. I always loved Daxter's design and hoped to get myself a little furry pal for my shoulder when I grow up. He's funny, he's naughty and overall a cool character that also had his moments when he was absolutely helpful.
Jak is a good looking young boy that I always loved the long spikey ears of xD And since he never talked (at least in game 1) I could relate to him from back when I was an introvert. Besides, he might have been my "personal Link" at that point since he shares some similarities with the modern game hero despite being mute.
These two are up for fun and action, which is why I wanted to convey thatin my drawing through their facial expressions. Daxter might have sneaked away some Precursor Orbs or not lol
I had fun when layering down colour by colour, trying to give a green accent on the right side of the iece while focussing on Daxter's orange colour on the left. What do you think about it? Would you hae noticed the colouring and lighting situation yourself?
I'd love to hear your feedback about this since this game also means a lot to me and I'm looking forward to sharing more with you about the others :D
Time: Around 3 to 4 hours
