Orc boi mercenary again by MrElagan on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Orc mercenary boi agaaain !! I've changed his design again after seriously working *a lot* on his story - and he has a name now: Ittai ^^!

I'm actually quite happy with that name and feels it fits him well :3
I can't decide on what haircut to give him tho aaah but I made him slightly less feminine than last time , i think he still looks fresh tho 😳

I didn't wanna go crazy with the background or anything this time (read: lazy) ; just wanted to make an illustration of him ^^. It's crazy how you make a character and before you know it you have a developing story and world with so many more character etc. i kinda love it tbh
So now I'm kinda deep in this fantasy story with him as the main character :3, I'll probably make more of him and some of his friends later on. He's really becoming quite the charming character to me with a lot of personality to explore and wrestle with.

I don't even know why I'm surprised anymore but these things always take so much longer than I intend, everything from stupid decisions regarding the background to never being happy with the face etc. Also I never really got in the right headspace when making this, like that sweet zone where you're just vibing and stuff.
So that's why it took so long, just me not really vibing, even though I rarely let that stop me and tend to just whip myself into action sadomasochistic style, but this time i was pretty spent ngl. Maybe I'll make some simpler images or something idk
But he's a good boi so he deserved some attention, even though it was rather horrendous at times to push through with this (also lowkey knowing that the time put in doesn't exactly translate into profit lmfao 💀)

Let me know if you wanna see more of him, or any of his friends (like the wizardboi i never got to make 😭) or some other characters ^^, i'm broke asf rn so any kind of suggestion as to what to make/what people wanna see might be useful
And comms still open as always, altho I'd probably make more blowing dudes off the side of the streets at this rate fr
