Little reference used

This is another design I did for a friend, completely hand-drawn and layered with little use of references. They have had the outline and some colour started and are having it finished within the next few months

I drew this image of Dobby from Harry Potter by hand with use of a reference, as an experiment to test my ability at drawing life
