Big thank you to Milanote for sponsoring the channel again! Milanote has been a game changer for my most recent art projects, make sure to check them out~

Here is the first part of Bill's Character Design/Development! In this video I explain a bit more about his background, personality, occupation, all that good stuff, all the while taking you through my character design process step by step. I'm still working on improving my digital painting skills so I hope this helps you in your own process.

Also I really want to go deeper into his character design so I decided to split this video into 2 parts!! more coming soon. Thank you all for the support and interest towards my oc's, it really means a lot to me !
