Been messing around with designs for merch cus I want to start up my shop this yeah and this was one of the button ideas that popped into my head.
Not sure if anyone remembers or is a fan of these games still but I personally LOVE Ecco the dolphin. I never really played the original games much but I really loved Defender of the future and I played it a lot growing up. It's easily one of my all time fave games and it's still so beautiful for an old ps2/dreamcast game <3

I wouldn't usually upload merch designs but I thought I could use this one for a painted example and he's cute so why not. I hope it at least gives a good idea of how my painted stuff would look like... I really need to paint digitally more often xD
