Trying to get into art mood with some doodling young Ranold from my novel #Schicksalsweber
I have no idea what i am doing. Just going with the flow XD

No i have to decide an outfit

Something elegant slutty for my own amusement. I am def. influenced by bingewatching two seasons of What they do in the shadows.

I love his smug face expression.
Does he technichally have a tragic backstory somewhere? Yes.
But has he learned to cope with it and move on? Also yes.

He is a MC who is not defined by his Trauma. He went through the emotions that he needed to work through.

But even with all that, the obstacles his story in #Schicksalweber has him face, brings his personality to the test.

When everything is stripped away from him.

Lineart so far with the reference clothing i chose for Ranold.

Finished artwork of one of the MC in my german, soon to be published novel "Schicksalsweber".

His name is Ranold.
He sports spanish fashion from the early 17th century. It was roughly the time when he was in his 20s and out and about to whoo the ladies of London.

I like how his heritage is visible in his looks. He inherited a lot from his egyptian mother, who met his english father during one of his business trips.
