Fashion Model: Sasuke

The whole inspiration for this is just out of a clothing magazine. His stance is that of posing for a photoshoot perhaps. And the light feel of it all should be reminiscent of something from an old 70s magazine maybe.

When it came time to "coloring" this piece, I decided to use clothing textures I created just using clothing pictures: the striped coat, the detailed shirt, the dark jeans, and the satin area in his coat. His skin and his hair, and even the legs of the chair are just colored normally to seperate the textured feeling from skin and metal~

It took me about 5 hours, in and out, to finish it (as I started it last night for 1 hour, then I had restart from scratch as my computer froze...and I didn't save). I haven't drawn an anime character, or anything in over a year, and it was my second time trying to use a tablet for the specific parts, like his hair and fingers.
