This is my original character, Friend! He is part of the creative universe dubbed PHANTASIA. hope you like this reference, I really enjoyed working on this. He has two forms, his older form and younger self. He is commonly seen with robes of humble means, typically robed/hooded garments. His eyes are usually closed. The orange markings are at his eyelids and nose. Thank you for viewing!

MS Paint preliminary sketch
Drawn mostly in mouse, I wanted to just get the basic info down and then move to clip studio paint, where I took the original sketch and added a new layer on top, made a basic line art layer, then a flat layer of color under that, then merged it all together and began working on the painting/rendering on one layer. I wanted to explore a variety of expressions and outfits, as well as have his alternate/young form in the reference. I'm very pleased with this composition.
finished result.
some miscellaneous character design notes:
- his clothing is always humble, like peasant garments, robes, cloaks, rough textiles and layers
- his eyes are always portrayed as closed
- he has orange markings in his eyelid area and on his nose, nowhere else; these are not makeup
I plan on posting more information on these characters in the future on my website.
