I like the finished result but tbh I love the monochrome sketch a ton more.
Very often I just really really love pushing bold value contrasts and adding colors is kind of an afterthought. Add a multiply layer and then some more tweaks, but the core is already there, sometimes even I feel like I downgrade it with colors.
This is one of the few sketches that even 9months later I still love. I like the flat color one but damn that sketch I like best lol.
Dynamic pose, fun details, highlights and texture on a cartoony character without going into uncanny territory

Idk each time I stumble on it I'm a bit amazed and go : Oh yeah, https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/019/784/iconimadethis.jpg ?
