New Year, old friend

Oh hey, Dr. Brier Thorn! It's been a while!

I had the thought "man I miss my original characters" and then realized oh right, I can just draw them.

Yes I will be finishing this.

Some headshots of my surly scientist lizard character Ben I drew back in 2015 for practice. I realize the proportions in the second picture are really off, but hey.

I did not post anything for the #drawthisinyourstyle but I did draw some of the characters in the tag!

I figure I should probably post art of my OCs on here. Golly. This is Dr. Benjamin Brier Thorn, a self-proclaimed scientific genius at both botany and herpetology and is also secretly a giant lizard, but he only likes telling that to his close friends. An accident with some chemicals (because that's usually how it goes) basically rendered his DNA very unstable, and exposure to sunlight or UV rays turns him into a giant snarly science lizard. He's still "sentient" in his lizard form, but he's also more violent, a little more unhinged in it, and makes more rash decisions in that form. Also, because he turns into a lizard in sunlight, he basically leads a night owl lifestyle and gets really mad when businesses close at six. He typically wakes up at around 2 pm and spends at least 30 minutes in the bathroom styling his hair in that ridiculous look.
