Emotive reference sheet for the protagonist of Black Hole Wizard.
I’m actually not super happy with these but I lost about two weeks to The Void recently and crawling back out has been slow going. Right now I just want this to be posted and done so please forgive the problems.

This is page 1 of 2 pages of emotive prompts just to help me get used to drawing Qutaybah. As you can see I’m not super settled yet, and he’s still pretty off-model in a lot of ways ugh
Anyway I think the hair/beard style will change in-story. Not from panel to panel obviously, but I braid and style my hair different from day to day in real life so I have never really been on board with dressing Qu in a “uniform” in the traditional cartoon sense. Curly hair in particular is a thing that lends itself to being fucked with, if only to keep it out of your way.
…and here’s ref sheet #1, which is visibly shakier than #2, which isn’t really a bad thing I guess, if you read it like...
