This is my entry in to Jazza's challenge of the month, January edition.

I have chosen to inter the beginner category, even though I have been doing art most of my life, this is my first human character. I mostly draw My Little Pony and have never really drawn a lot of humans and never in this style. It has been a fun challenge and I will be doing more drawing of humans.
Also this is one of my first drawings on computer using a tablet. Mostly my medium has been paper/pencil and acrylic paintings.
Also this is my first time doing one of Jazza's challenges.

The game I chose is called Strider and is a arcade game from 1989. I chose this game after long research. With me being born in 1991, I'm to young to have memories of games like this, so had to google a lot and after some time I found this game, and chose this scene from the arcade game.
