These lines were done by the amazing *particle9. Go visit him if you haven't already. What i've done here are the colors. I've been trying to lately but i couldn't find good line-art, well i could, but i didn't know if i could use it so i asked Chasen if he could hook me up with some high-res line-art. Beeing the nice guy that he is he send me this one among others. Thanks man.
The great thing about good line-art is, the shading is mostly self explainatory. I like how this one came out alot but there were so many details that it took a long time before it was done. Also, i kinda went out on a limb with the color cause the only reference i had was a headshot on the Particle9 Productions website.
I hope you guys can give me useful crits on this but also be nice whilst doing that because i'm a very sensitive guy.
p.s.: If you wanna know more about Argen or the Ecru universe, i suggest you visit *particle9's page.
