Okay soooooooo! Finally finished! His crown have the gems AnMal requested, I hope you like them! I had no clue what I was doing to make them so..yeahh..:>

Drawn in MyPaint and GIMP, and took about 5 or 6 days to draw from sketch - finish@_@

I hope he turned out okay...Took a lot of work!

Special Shout-out to Erisian! - That nose tutorial was my best friend in this! I kept opening it and referencing back. :D

Moko, such a delightful king. Nice work. Yes, it looks like you have spent a lot of time and work on it. Keep up the good work!

That came out great! What is the symbol on his pendant? It looks like an integral symbol over an infinity symbol.

Your little King is very sweet. I hope he rules his country well. I think he will be well accepted as their leader.
Anyway, love the eyes.

You certainly has a very distinct style Moko. :D It's nice and friendly, fun to see how this grew forth as well.

Thank you! I still thank your nose tutorial for it though, his nose kept arguing with me...But I prevailed! :hehe

I'm glad you think so! :D
I have an odd liking for other language letters and symbols; the symbol is the Russian (from what I can tell) equivalent of their "F" sound. I basically picked it because it looked interesting to me, though. :lol

Ah well, if my story/book whatever it ends up being turns out alright, it's meant to have a plot anybody can enjoy so that includes children! I always thought I'm bad with children's things yet little kids seem to follow me around :lol
Maybe I'm destined to do something with children.

LOL yeah! More bling to the people! :hehe

It amazes me how you get from a sketch to this terrific finish. What a oddly adorable King. I love his upper lip.

:clap Thank you! :D
ahaha you like his lip! xD
Glad you like it. =P


To appease the people (haven't you heard? I'm a princess =P) I will post later a traditional art with the hard lines since I can't seem to be inspired on the computer for it yet.

Excellent, I think this is the best face I have seen you paint. One little hint about the mustache...a mustache is usually either straight across from razor shaping or a big smile, or more often, higher in the center and goes downwards to the sides from there. My hubby has had a 'stache for years, so I spotted this right away.
