OM NOM NOM CRAP AND MORE MATURE CONTENT NUMMY.
asdf I dunno. Got a new brush pen and had fun experimenting with it on lil' Jordy. And by experimenting I mean destroying the potential for this piece. Yup, I think I learned just what this Micron was for via this piece- facial outlines and clothes. Everything else looks like SHIT.
Anyways, Slick makes his assholish appearance. And yes that is an XTC pill on his tongue along with his tongue piercing. Yum.
Um...don't like his outfit. I dunno. Any suggestions for him?

Your inking's pretty slick (Har. Slick.) especially on the keyboard. Man, that is tight and fine! And while your lines are still nicely clean on the rest of him, the character feels...static. He's standing up straight with perfect posture, and even his arm is perfectly vertical. It feels very at-odds with the expression you want to give him, of a kind of callous jerkwad who doesn't care what you think about him. Loosen him up! Build him from dynamic diagonals, instead. Maybe he's slouching. Maybe his shirt hasn't been ironed since he got it. Maybe his hair's a little messy. Maybe he's tilting the angle of his head in order to look down his nose at whoever he's dealing with, with his eyebrows furrowed aggressively, and his lips pulled into a snarl.

(And try to compose an image so that you'll never suddenly be hiding hands and feet. It gives the impression that you're avoiding them because you don't know how to draw them, and I know that you know how to. Take every opportunity to show off that skill!

This is actually... a thrilling character design. His right hand/arm is lacking; there's a few issues with the hand, like the wrist definition and the knuckles, and the sleeve should probably be down slightly since due to the pull of gravity since it appears to be loose (based on the space between the coat and wrist and the wrinkles on the other sleeve).
S'also a weak-ass Yamaha if that's meant to be a show keyboard. But you know, I'm spoiled to ridiculous keyboardists with absolutely ridiculous set-ups. Even still... it's lacking ports, I think.
Also, what's with his undershirt? Does it just not have an upper, uh... what's the word... seam, I guess? Or some kind of collar?
