I'm not sure what Justin is doing here. The idea was to practice a full body shot of a male character in an unusual pose, and that's what I wound up with. I'd guess it's a combat stance, but for all I know, he's about to bust a move.

The Raven sketches were drawn because I wanted a better feel for drawing his face before the latest big reveal in the story comics. Raven is one of my favorite characters to draw in the EGS style because he is simply different enough from the main characters for him to be visually interesting and fun.

I actually think the best way for me to refine the EGS style is to draw people other than the main characters. The main characters aren't going to change much; they're established, their designs SHOULD be relatively simple and accessible, and any changes will either be plot-related or more like making corrections than actual changes. For me to actually expand upon the style and give it more life, I need to draw other characters.

I also need to draw more full body poses. It's way too common for me to just draw them from the chest up, as I generally focus on their faces and cut off the rest to fit character and text in panel. That's fine and dandy until I need to zoom out, and then it suddenly becomes a hassle. I need to get used to doing both.
