Gary by @MOCHI (Vanessa Ho)

His name is Gary. Although he is not yet an official 'character' of mine, I have already thought of some descriptions of him while colouring this LOL

He models for a boutique called "T'amour" supposedly meaning "your love" even though the correct saying should be "votre amour" or "ton amour" (I think).

Just like how he looks, he can be quite a jerk sometimes but his looks and great talent of manipulating (specifically confusing) ones feelings keeps him from getting into any trouble.

Fortunately, he asks for very little and works very hard when it comes to his job. All in all, he does has his charms =p

(This image is re-uploaded because I had previously missed the big fat triangle - the gap between his right arm and the jacket, which is now corrected).

I think Votre Amour... :o "Ton" implies a level of familiarity, so. T'amour definitely sounds cooler, though. sweat

ANYWAY. He's schmexy. I like the clothing folds, particular in his right elbow, and the hands are nicely drawn, though I think the index finger of his left hand is a little long. ;) Cute character design, and I like the adam's apple, lol.

I'm hoping T'amour is easily understood? Is it even a real word? or can it pass for just a word-to-be? lol

Thanks so much for your comment!!!! Yea, now that you mention it, it is WAY too long lol Thanks so much! Should be careful of that next time =p

Thanks so much for your lovely comment and crit!!!!!

Don't quote me on all this, but I don't think that it would be in a native French-speaking country, because they're so particular about using "ton" whether the noun is masc. or fem. if it starts with a vowel (and 'amour' is masc. anyway), and I think using the "tu" form with people you don't know is usually offensive, but if your story were set outside of such an area you could easily get by. ;D There's technically incorrect French all over the place, and it's cute in a strange way, like Engrish! <3 (Though I probably shouldn't be promoting that...)

NP! Thank you for yours on my little star chick, too. <3 I appreciate the help.
