Wow, talk about improvement! (Though I'm not sure how much it's _true_ improvement since I used references for the new drawing, but I think I've gotten much better at faces.
I like the result with refs, but I yearn for the day I can just draw straight without them.)
Edit: What am I, nuts?! Looking at it more, it's sorely obvious: I'VE IMPROVED BY LEAPS AND BOUNDS!

This took a bit longer then expected. I was working on a Molly drawing and inking this at the same time, and stupidly, I used Molly's hair color to ink Ian! So I noticed today and had to redo almost the entire drawing.

Ian really has changed a lot since 2010. I've worked on developing him more so that he feels like a concrete character with interests, quirks and various moods. Plus there's Sylvester! Who knew Ian would have a bunny back in at the start of things, or even a pet? How far he's come!

Now I just need to keep working on my fan fics of Ian so he can be even better fleshed out! (Inspiration/motivation just needs to hit, which always seems to be my problem with Ian.)
 
Oh, the updated drawing was actually for something else, so you'll get to see a bigger version of it soon!
