Hi!
A concept for a bandit/thief character. I'm still polishing the design.
Once complete, it'll be uploaded on CP for a free download.
Any suggestions on the design?

Clean-up and detail of the upper body. The jacket design was just taken from a medieval costume site. What's challenging is trying to keep it minimal. This is difficult because I constantly want to add add add detail.

Nice drawing, but not very convincing as a bandit.
Bandits didn't have money, that's why they stole from others. They didn't have fancy clothing in good condition. Instead most of it was a collection from elsewhere, found or stolen, and not of the right size.
Medieval clothing didn't have multiple buckles on anything. Simple patterns, cheap materials. Definitely not that "taylor-made" look clinging to the body.
Most likely the bandit didn't have such a handsome face.

Points taken.
I failed to mention this is a modern day bandit who fancies the Men's Express store and Gillette Pro-glide razors.

Then it's settled. He's a prince-turned-pirate!
Ya know, I was actually thinking "pirate" as the design progressed.
