Isn't he swanky? Jackabin was created out of a mix of two inspirations. One being over course my best friend and my newest campaign [RPG/Story] which is loosely based around 1850's New York during the immagrations [Inspired by 'Gangs of New York']. The other being the song "Mr. Jack" by System of a Down on their newest CD- Steal This Album. Great song. "Hey Mr. Jack, is that the trick of your disguise?...Hey Mr. Jack, is that the cause of your demise?" -Gave me the idea of his name and the gambling. Poker faces mask ulterior motives...but if you're not careful, getting caught cheating it could be your demise.
Jackabin DeAngello is a wealthy Italian immigrant who likes to gamble. [In the storyline, most of the immigrants are anthro because New York is inhabited souly by humans, the anthros kind of replace racial immigration with species immigration and yeah]. He loves dice and cards and seems to have lady luck on his side more than most of the time. He's as crafty as he is cute. He is half Golden Jackal [his father] and half Silverback Jackal [his mother].
I really like the sketch, even though I did it on lined paper. Unfortunately it was all I had at the time. Does ANYONE know how to get the blue lines out? I tried best I could and fuckered up his coat in doing so. Think I got most of them though. Drawn in mechanical and plain #2 pencil. Damned line paper *shakes fist*
Very often, that danged lined paper will ruin great sketches... I'm still working on trying to figure out how to get them out. It looks like you did a good job with that, though.
Speaking of good jobs, another excellent character design. The muzzle style looks great, as well as all the period clothing. Great work!
