Yey I've been waiting to be able to submit this one! xD
It's for an art contest, Theme was Majora's Mask and the sub-theme was Masks.
I wasn't entirely sure WHERE I was going with this at first, except that I wanted to portray Keaton. It's a character I haven't really drawn since 2003, and I just love being playful with it's tails and it's chest fluff. I also knew I wanted to do something incredibly stylized.
Originally, I was going to have the mask in his mouth, but it wasn't really translating very well. I kept thinking people who haven't played the game would see it and say "why is that thing carrying it's own FACE in it's mouth!?" >_>; Stupid, but it' something I think about when coming up with designs. Anyways, the mask how it is now came together really quickly once I decided to ditch the mouth idea. Flames soon after!
It was a nice exercise in working on composition, dynamic poses, and unifying colors. And while I could mess with this thing forever before I was completely happy with it, but overall I really like the end results.
