progress, "Gentle Devil"

first of all i just wanna point out that as soon as i started writing this post i had some serious daja vu...just felt like i needed to say that incase someday it all comes together and makes sense that i had it...
its always good to track deja vu, like dreams...
anyyyways!
I call this one "Gentle Devil" because hes really strong and could be scary but look at his pose...looks almost feminine. I like playing with androgynous-looking things.

so heres some progress!
