(I don't like drawing them in front view : P ) It makes them lose a lot of character

Ah, couldn't wait to upload those busts. Azuryt(bottom) has been done for quite a while and I feel like an update could be in order (even though I drew both of those from pretty recent and finalized 3d models I made.)
Also coloring style has changed a little bit since then so they seem a little mismatched - at least to me.
But anyway, behold the two guys that pretty much hate each other as they can't come to an agreement for a good bit of the book. They merely try to tolerate one another.
Thorn - the strict captain and a son of an admired general. vs Az - an outsider who never had a chance to learn the true ways of his people.
I love seeing this artwork, and the other older pieces again. It means a lot to artists, and those striving for the top, to see where an admired artist has come from. No matter prior reasons for removing artwork, or reluctance to post art because of flaws, I am very grateful to see it back up. I really enjoy following these characters
