I wanted to do a cultural vent piece for myself. Of a man who is part dragon in modernization bound to 2 cultures, but avoids them due to their harm to him as a young hatchling. There is love for the cultures but heavy animosity to the ones it is attached to. The ones who raised him of course. Sometimes it is hard for him to separate.

Wanted to go from a different style for this humanoid wise and I gotta say I love it. I was inspired by listening to a lot of dancehall music while also looking at Chinese opera photos. The hairstyle is a mix of a Cn opera singer's hairstyle, baby curls, and cornrows in a modern motif.

Not much else to say other than I did learn a bit from this... the original was supposed to be traditional buuuuuut no sir I used the wrong paper good thing I scanned it before botching the original.. WELP ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
