The Boss. 33.3% Hitler, 33.3% Wario, 33.3% Robotnik.

Trying to flesh out this character because, honestly, I have no idea what he really looks like from multiple angles.  And frankly, I suck at drawing anything from multiple angles.  Like this hair.

I was doing gesture drawings and looking at various animations while doing these.  At one point I got frustrated cause I couldn't find fat models to draw from so I found an elephant sitting.. and it seems to be one of the best I drew. lol

Staring at Le Royaume also helped a ton.  The hair of the King character changes with his mood.. and I thought that was amazing.

I'm still slightly unsure about this character.. Sometimes he looks like Hitler, sometimes Wario, and when I try to make him look angry by moving his mustache, he looks like Robotnik.  I like that his expression comes from his mustache.. but I'm failing at giving him emotion with just that.  I don't like showing his mouth, like the middle right face, but I'm lacking ways to move his mustache to give it real emotion.

Also worked on some backgrounds.
