#bearskin hat

[maxelvingart]

Had some fun doing some character design last year. Started out with just shapes and a silhouette. I've always had an interest in historical dress and especially military uniforms and this was an attempt at making a fantasy one inspired by the Napoleonic Wars.

Looking forward to doing something similar in the near future. :)

And Napoleon briefly toyed with the idea of throwing his famous bicorne hat away and adopting a forgotten bearskin hat instead.

But he decided not.

He decided not.
