he needs hair 😔

[narrow raft]

He’s supposed to be like a high society posh gentleman (possible serial killer) but I’m having trouble with his hair, idk if I wanna give him a ponytail or some fancy schmancy hairstyle but what do you guys think?

[digital inlet]

These might be basic but I'm kinda imagining something swoopy like this? Or a slickback that's longish at the back? But honestly a low ponytail would work great too. Especially if u gave him glasses

[narrow raft]

Okay! All this ideas/suggestions sound great. I’ll try them all and see which one looks best. Ty!

[honest kraken]

ooooh yea i second this !! would really compliment his facial features too :DD

[narrow raft]

When I draw how the ponytail would look it wouldn’t really be visible from the angle his face is facing us so should I draw it draping over his shoulder?

[honest kraken]

definitely yes !! feel like it would make the drawing more organic and visually interesting too

[narrow raft]

Alr!! Ty for the feedback, I’ll draw out the different hair styles later them post them here to see which one looks best to you guys :3

[narrow raft]

Ok so here are the designs I’ve got. I did try the slick-back but it didn’t really look great. Honestly, the swoopy styled one makes him look like a mix between Rick Astley and Ryan Reynolds (somehow) so idk abt that one but for the ponytail I don’t know if I want it curving the the left or just going straight down. What do you think? And if the ponytail does look better to you, I’ll also try the glasses.

I like the curved ponytail most! But the way u parted the hair at the top kinda reminds me of a 1700s aristocrat 😭 ofc that's okay if you're happy with it though, it fits the character

I can draw over to show how I would personally part it if you'd like

[narrow raft]

Okay, sure! Honestly the character I’m drawing here is kinda stuck in the 1700s for their aesthetic but I would like to see how you’d do it!

[digital inlet]

Omg then you MUST add a little bow

[narrow raft]

Ok 😭 I’ll either do that or a jabot and see which one looks best lmao

[digital inlet]

Ok here's how I'd part it + optional bow for funsies

It's kinda like a side part? But not rly

[narrow raft]

Ok that looks much better imo, I’ll try to do that🤩

[digital inlet]

[narrow raft]

Oh yeah, I need to give him ears

[narrow raft]

I tried to reference how you did as best I could

[digital inlet]

That looks great!!

[narrow raft]

Ty for your help! Now into his clothes..

[narrow raft]

Idk where his shoulders should go-

[digital inlet]

Do u have a pose in mind

Like for hands or anything

[narrow raft]

Idrk, if I were to do hands he’d either be like waving a hand dismissively or resting his cheek in his hand or something

What do you think?

[digital inlet]

Yeah, waving his hand would be interesting! Idrk how that affects his shoulder I think u should find a reference
