Time has come to change this old dusty avatar of mine. I wanted to create a "big headed" version of the wizard Haash. Did some circles for the proportions, started tracing and the result came quite satisfying. Since it is quite a simple picture, I played a little with the colours. Increased the contrast for the second one (with minor colour changes) and changed pretty much everything regarding colours for #3. Still, the not so flashy #1 is my favourite...   --->Notice he has a hand holding something that is not there yet! I was first thinking about a lantern but hey, why not something else? a) Lantern is ok b) Magical Wand with lightning c) A tasty sausage d) An even more tasty banana e) A dumb candle The result will be in the final piece. ------------- This is not a signature. |

The big head makes it kind of cute. A lantern or candle would be nice, if only because it allows for a little bit of additional lighting. But it would clash with the beard, so I think you're better off with a wand or even a mushroom, as you can point those the other way.
#1 has a bit of an issue with the beard vs. the arm, it just doesn't contrast well enough for my liking. #2 is better in that aspect. #1 and #2 would get my girlfriend in a fit though - dark brown hat + dark purple cloak would be a no-no in her book. :) |

Thanks for your comment. I added a few more colour, fixed his feet and some extra pixels i hadnt noticed the first time. So these last three guys will look slightly different. =)
