DTIYS: the Rook

DTIYS: the Rook

It’s about time I hosted a Draw This In Your Style challenge! I thought since it’s my birthday this month and I’m almost at 500 followers, this would be a fun way to celebrate - and of course I had to feature Rook! I am offering art as a prize for my favourite entry, with more prizes unlocking with more entries submitted. The deadline to enter and win prizes is 💥15th August💥. You can still post your entries after that but they will not be eligible for prizes. Rules: - Draw this in your style! - You may simplify or change the pose, angle, props, background, colours, outfit etc. as long as there’s still some semblance of the original drawing - No need to include the “DTIYS” sign in your drawing - You may not change Rook’s design, please make an effort to translate their features into your art style - More references of Rook can be found on their Refsheet page here: https://refsheet.net/euphoriusdesign/rook - No tracing, no AI generating - Please keep entries SFW; a little gore is fine but nothing gratuitous - To be eligible for prizes you must be following me (new followers welcome), and you must submit your entry before 15th August - All valid entries before and after the prize deadline will be reshared 💕 - If you post your entry on another platform, tag and credit me Prizes: 1st place: monochrome shaded or flat colour fullbody commission 2nd place: sketchy commission (unlocks at 15 entries) 3rd place: sketchy icon commission (unlocks at 30 entries)

Rook ♟️I don't draw masculine type characters often, so I wanted I wanted to give this dtiys a try and see if I could recreate Rook in a dignified and accurate way. Let me tell you, his face drove me crazy, but in a good way. It was a nice challenge @Euphoriusdesign 's characters are always so beautifully stylized I spent hours looking at Adrian Brody's face as inspiration trying to get the shape right.
I definitely got lazy with the background, as I often do but overall I'm happy with how it turned out.

I love this!! Rook looks so confident, and I love the pose and the colourful city lights ✨ The face is looking awesome, I’m still so impressed with the legs, and the highlights are gorgeous. I’m glad you enjoyed the challenge!! Thanks so much for joining 💕
