Before and WIP after plus a character drawing for comparison.

Remember when I painted doll-Tennant originally and my concept was just that I wanted him to be a nicer guy than my other characters? HAHAHA. Anyway, I’d fallen very much out of love with his repaint, so, time to do him over. It ended up being way too late to finish his face in one sitting so here’s a WIP with eyes + rough brows + slapdash pastels so he doesn’t look nakedfaced (these fade like hell without sealing so I wasn’t fussy).

Mostly I can tell that my style has become very very different over the years! It pretty much matches the way I digitally paint eyes now which is… predictable. I think I want to paint some more soft in-betweens in there though, they just look like solid cartoon eyes unless you’re right on top of them and the light’s bright enough to differentiate the brown and black (which it only is under my painting lamp). On the bright side, look how I was patient enough to get a nice smooth white this time!
