This is a quickie I finished some days ago. Such a fun project to do!

Daxter has been on my "to draw" list for a few months. Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy was one of my favourite games when I was a kid. It's been over a decade I played the game first time. Wow, time flies. Daxter was my absolute favourite character back then, and still like him a lot.
I started to play the game again on PCSX2 (don't have original PS2 anymore, so that PC emulator replaces it quite well) and the nostalgia was just... Overwhelming. So, drawing something related the game was just a thing that I had to do!

Even if my style is quite anqular and based on sharp shapes, I can draw round shapes too. This is a true evidence of it. >)

The paper I used was Canson Montval. It's been really long since last time I used it. Kinda shame, because it is perfect with watercolour, but the inking procress on that paper is completely other story. :'D Montval has a rougher texture compared to my other papers, so the ink starts to live it's own life within the bumps of the paper.

Tools: Winsor & Newton watercolours (Cotman The Studio), several brushes for ink, watercolour brushes (Daler-Rowney), bottled ink (Rohrer & Klingner Zeichentusche black), and white gouache paint (Daler-Rowney).
