The idea is not to make something new entirely but i might have been to conservative.I did some few iteration you can look at page 30 there was 3 different attempt but that might have been to few to generate something that was solid and different enough.I wanted to retain some of the more noticeable and recognizable item like is pistol holder and the vest.I think the biggest change are the hairstyle, the boot,the glove and the color scheme.The idea and goal was to try to redesign a known character and borrow someone else style.Due to the limitation of the item i wanted to tweak i tried to to give more balance to the blank space it would have created since i was removing some of the detail of the undershirt by removing the sleeve so glove seem like a nice addition.The boot metal plate aren't necessary the best choose in term of design and it as to do with boot being something i am not really familiar with or comfortable with yet so the hard edge of the metal was something i was feeling comfortable with.Sadly sometime design decision aren't the best one but sometime you make choose because you feel like you need the piece to progress it didn't help that even with that i didn't feel the inner shape in the boot were working to my liking i admit i lost patience the design of the boot.I think in the future i need to take a pause before starting boot there just more demanding to me and generally if i been drawing for long it can end up that i have no steam left when it come the time to design the boot.

Yes i know what design variation are i am still trying to get better a producing more idea but in the case of an existing design i felt my choose were limited if i wanted to retain the likeness.The idea was that even people who don't know him that well could still recognize him even in a different drawing style or color scheme.Of course if you compare this kind of re-design to more extreme one. Mine come as rather blend without much surprise.
