Drunken Lullabiesby ~Ayior

Cartoons & Comics / Digital Media / Cartoons / Vector

EDIT: His name is Urten, not Urgen XXD SORRY

I always wanted to do an art piece like that, then I read of *Skaillas contest, looked throuh her characters for an "Unfriendly, military" guy and found Urten- because I love to make guys like him drunk, Failing at themselves.

And this song helped me, fits also to the theme:

Drunken Lullabies - Flogging Molly (Fits best) [link]

Oh and the Background says "Prost, Urten!" Prost is german for Cheers^^

I think we could "unflat" our glasses by putting a gradient from dark-in the middle white- and then dark again, multiply^^
I just did not wanted to use gradients here...

the first is irish folk-punk
