Description
Of all the characters, Jacin was the hardest for me to picture in my head, but I hope this is somewhat similar to how others see him >.> I am looking forward to some Jacin development in Winter, because of all the main heroes, he sure needs it the most at this point
I am proud of that Lunar uniform collar. Makes me wonder what the rest of the uniform would look like, but I didn't think it through that far.

You may or may not know this... but this picture is on the inside cover of Winter, along with other fan arts, but this one clearly stands out. They should have put all your face drawings on the cover!!!!! I bought my copy from Target and didn't realize there were different editions until my sister saw my copy and said her's didn't have the fan art. She was so jealous.
I was so happy to see him on there. I know it's been like forever since winter, but I just finished rereading the series and I am OBSESSED AGAIN.
Super in love your artwork. If I had more than two thumbs, all of them would be up.

I picture him with like, pure white blonde hair.... I thought he had a ponytail

He used to have a pony tail, but it got cut at some point between book one and three. I noted him being described as having "hair the color of golden straw" and "hair longer and lighter than Thorneβs" so you could be right.

Agreed! I can't wait to see him and Winder interact in the next book.

I just had to make an account to comment because your artwork is AMAZING! I finished reading Cress last week and the drawings for all these characters are on point! If you read any other book series... let's say Delirium or others, would you pleeeaase draw characters from them? Because this style of artwork is by far the best and most favorite that I have seen!

Thank you very much!
I might do drawings like this for characters from other series someday, it just depends how much I like the story and if I have the time!

Hi, I wonder if you could draw me a picture as Jacin Clay (it is beautiful indeed. β₯) but with green eyes. I would really appreciate if you could do it !
P.S. : I'm French so I use Google Translate, I hope you understand what I mean.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you're asking. (It is Google Translate's fault

(This is probably a fault of Google Translate.)
This portait after changing his eyes to green. If it is possible, of course.

This character you have created has a very similar look to one of my characters in my story. He is a mix between this Jacin Clay and Captain Carswell Thorne in the face and his hair is a little longer over his forehead. Do you mind if I use these charcter profiles to help create a sketch of mine?

I don't mind at all!

Oh thank you!! IΒ΄ll read them!! They are on my list just now!!

I love the eyes! The red is very complementary on him.

That's amazing !
How do you do this effect of background light ?
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you!
As I draw, the background stays around a medium value. Towards the end of the drawing I make the paintbrush huge and set the opacity to 15%-30%. Then I go over the whole background (as well as the edges of the figure) again and again until the background is white and the edges of the figure are nice and atmospheric. The little bit of blue/green comes from the brush set to overlay. That is basically it.
