Aljan Firebringer

Jan from Meredith Ann Pierce's Firebringer trilogy

A relatively quick drawing done a couple of days ago- I didn't use any references so the anatomy is off lol but I like it anyway. It wasn't meant to be entirely realistic either (as you can see especiallly well in the fire and the smoke! ::)

I was going to do a background but then decided against it- I like it better this way. I drew it on yellow velour paper, and let the paper shine through just a little bit around Jan, which worked out well in my opinion, because I was trying to make it a bit fire-themed. I don't know if it worked.

Done with my new Nupastels (:heart:) and my trusty old Derwents and Rembrandts.
