So I stood in front of my bathroom mirror and used a towel to help make some reference photos of my cosplay as Leo (my sona), specifically reference photos for the collar, and as I'd expected I've been doing it wrong all this time.

How I used to draw it:

How I'm supposed to draw it:

The paper got a little messed up when I erased the old one, 'scuse me.

Here's the reference photos when I put a towel under the collar to more easily tell it apart from the rest of the shirt:

Turns out (imo) that blue/turquoise/teal(I dunno colours) really fits Leo.

Also the yellow neckwear is because my beard kept showing beneath the mask so i covered my face.

Here's a few reference photos where I simply put on different articles of clothing that I had and thought might look good with the hawaii shirt:

This is a white vest that I've had for years but haven't used because it gets dirty so easily, imo it makes Leo look like a fisher/angler.

ALSO I FOUND THE SWEDISH EQUIVALENT OF A DOLLAR'S WORTH OF CHANGE IN ONE OF THE POCKETS; HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY!

This is a shirt that I found in a fleasale, I really like it and I think it makes Leo look like He's a part of a mob or something.

Also featuring my black leather gloves.

Last one now, probably my favourite along with the black striped shirt above, also makes Leo look like he's part of some mob.

Now if only I had a good hat to go with that mob style... Might swing by dollar store tomorrow and see if the have something cheap.

If someone good at drawing sees this and has some free time I would love to see Leo as an actual mobster.
