Here is my update to Javelin, the lazy dragoon. This was particularly challenging to get his color scheme to look like what it did in my head, but overall im happy. I wanted to make him look tall and thinner.

Info:
Javelin spends a good deal of his time courting rich women to gain large monetary benefits. He refers to this skill as "lady krafting". He does have his own battle wyvern(not pictured), though he often times cant recall or is too lazy to remember here he stabled it. Though most of the time he cant be bothered to do anything that he didnt think of, when he is needed, he does the task at hand with superb skill and panasche.

You pull out all the stops on your work don't you? There is so much detail put into this and even though it's not shaded that much, the color is just stunning. The clothing and outfit remind me of a modernized samauri outfit. The head of the weapon he's holding looks cool also. I especially like the coat tails that are hanging off the coat. Very fantastic. I would love to see what this looks like shaded. I just don't get the boots, they don't look very practical. I know they don't have to be real but that's just me.
What do you think?

Another really nice character design from :iconarvalis:
As always the autor shows great skills at picturing naturalness, expression and behavior making the character easy to read and "feel" just as it should be.
In this one I liked very much the armor overall design, it literally put a smile on my face as I kept looking at all the details.
It sort of reminds me of a jester...well, at least some kind of armored wyvern-riding jester :D and it suits well the character personality from what I read about it: someone not "so serious" but skillful indeed.
Still not anything particurarly original to give away a 5-star but very well thought of and done with great skill.
Still want to see some shading on all these but that's merely a personal complain afterall.

Hey, Arvalis! Sorry I haven't been around lately. You've been keeping yourself busy, judging from all the new submissions I haven't seen. You are getting better and better, my friend. I love dragoons, so this Javelin gets a +1 from me :)
