Just a dragonification of one guy, probably the closest and dearest person to me. You may even know him. He used to appear on DA and FA, although he was active for a very short time, less than a year and did mostly collab stuff with me. In any case, he's unlikely to ever come back again (although he does awesome things, I think), so there is no big point in putting links to his accounts.

As you may have noticed, I'm a big fan of emphasizing the unique features (in appearance and personality) of characters. I like to work on the differences between them, show their physical traits, facial expressions, behavior, and in my native language, also the way they speak.

There is something similar in my view of real people. I like to notice their features, I'm attracted to individuality, manifested in small things, such as gaze, gait, timbre of voice, etc. All these things are not easy to convey through a static picture, but this is so fascinating that I can't help but try.

So I'm surprised that I haven't tried to express this guy in a similar way yet, even though I've known him for many years and we've come a long way. Even with all the reasons to leave each other, we still continue to move in the same direction, hah. Why? I don't know. Sometimes it happens that shared pain connects people much more than shared joy. And we need to go through something really bad to finally come to something good.

For better understanding, he's very similar to Rezver, one of my calm and very comfortable characters. It would be right to say that this guy is a decent prototype of Rezver. Rezo existed before we met, but my dear comrade gave me a good idea of ​​how such people behave.

Well, this thing is a kind of gratitude to a wonderful person for being in my life, for all the cool things and for those things that were probably not so good. Life is life, we are all wonderful, we are all awful, and I try to appreciate people simply for being themselves.
