In lieu of the upcoming film adaptation of "Ready Player One" by Ernest Cline, I decided to draw characters from the book of the same name. This is my rendition of the main protagonist, Wade Owen Watts aka 'Parzival'. Throughout the book it is mentioned that his avatar is a knight, mage/spellcaster, and I tried to create something in between. I also included some classic pop culture aspects to highlight his love for all geeky things (though I admit I could have gone further). I gave him a lightsaber with a cross guard to emphasize his knighthood; most of the design aspect (like the stylized ‘P’) was inspired by Captain Marvel and Superman, to emphasize that he is creating a persona of himself--like a superhero, with an alliterative name; which he incidentally has; his gauntlets are Nintendo Power gloves, which I think is really cool; his pauldrons have images of keys on them to reference the keys in the book; and finally, the token. (Not gonna spoil it).
