I finally got around to finishing this guy- and had loads of fun in the process!
I know it’s almost Chanukah and this post is kind of incongruous with the time of year, so I guess we could pretend that this guy is Antiochus for the next few weeks.
Still, I must say that if Achashveirosh looked something like this in real life, I feel even worse for Esther than I did before….
Purim characters are fun- I can’t wait to get to the other ones eventually 🙂
For this character design, I used Denis Zilber’s pencil brush again (as mentioned before in this blog post)- for pretty much the entire illustration. I liked using it for the linework- because I found that I didn’t have to be as much of a perfectionist (see blog post here) and the imperfections that came up fit right in with the hand-drawn look.
