This is a character from three of the best books of all time! Megan Whalen Turner's "The Thief", "Queen of Attolia", and "King of Attolia"! Eugenides, the Thief of Eddis, and one of the most entertaining characters I've ever read about.
If any of you have not checked out these books yet, I recomend them VERY highly. "Their on my top ten list... as in 1 THROUGH 10!" <- saying (c) to KB. lol!
This peice was done in ball-point pen and pencil. The hair took an eternity to finish, so I decided to wimp out and color his jacket* with pencil. heh-heh.
*I got the idea for the jacket from the cover of "The King of Attolia"

Yesh, and HECK YEAH! It's the coolest series! If you like wacked-out-ancient-history-fiction-novels, then you'll love those books. The characters are witty and awsum. *pause* I sound like I'm doing a commercial. *shrugs*
It's set in Ancient Greece and is basically about this thief named Gen (), and he has to help the king's magus (a scholar or something) find this stone (either that or go back to prison). Whoever has the stone is supposedly the true king of Eddis, which is a place the king's trying to take over. I cannot recomend it enough... and since I can't, I'm going to shuddup or I'll be going on for another five paragraphs.

Wow, this is fantastic!!!! Gen is one of my favorite characters of all time and Thief is such a great book. I hadn't heard of the others, but I will read them immediately. I love the detail in this picture and the liveliness you gave him.

When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
