Description
Since Billy can be pain in ass when he gives silly riddles. I have no idea how other pilots deal with him but I guess he has his entertaining moments. Not to forget to mention bets where he usually tries to win some money or grub (and maybe raunchy postcard XD). Definitely worse than a sphinx.-----------------------------------------------
Just testing and playing a bit with speedpaint technique. Idk where did the style come from. But looks cool.

I always try to add something new in my style and keep it fluent, experiment a lot and not keep myself on same thing/level over and over. I'm glad that you like it and further more find it inspiring! Thanks.

It was definitelly worth working on. Looks great!
I like how it mixed your style but also paint like speed art. His face is definitelly my fav. Also fits him.
Also I hate to say this but without gotee he looks more like a man from that era. I somehow feel like it fits him more.

Thanks mate! C:
Well honestly if I did this few months ago i would be like "No way, he must have a goatee." but actually, is true... It fits him more in that era without it. Oh well I am keeping goatee in modern and pirate au XD
Now he smooth baby face.

gotee is good for pirate or modern au, I agree! I definitelly see him with it, and I kind of miss it too, but... after all people on that era didint wear that. Maybe moustache or but yeah.
(dont worry, I also changed my ocs look only to fit more into the era xD)
no wait, you know whats the best? he deserves to have a beard. Yes, he looks sexy with the beard!

im sO sorry to butt in here!! but i couldn't help it haha, i love history chats like this and i know what it's like to have to sacrifice a trait you like on a character to make it more historically accurate haha. it's true that really, beards/goatees weren't really in fashion in the 1940s and men were mostly clean shaven. BUT if you didn't want to let go of billy's facial hair, RAF pilots did sometimes have veeeery suave moustaches! very dapper indeed! www.thewordofmatus.com/wp-cont… upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia… img.photobucket.com/albums/v20…

Awwww you are never bothering man Thanks for pointing it out tho! Billy can be quite messy from time to time... so he ends up have a stubble. Yet yes, I should avoid goatee (even if he looks adorable with one)
I once tried to put mustache on my boy and he looked like french creep.

I can totally see why he'd have some stubble if he didn't have time to shave for a while because, of course, he's in the middle of ww2 haha! aww messy bb
IM SCREAMING OMG i actually like the stache on him omggg he looks rather like a posh officer! he looks rather like errol flynn too.

He looks cute with facial hair rather than clean face, idk clean face makes him look to chubby and child like. Which I guess neither I nor he wants.
Actually yea, you are right. Mustaches are not bad idea. First I thought it weird... but now when I think. Hm. Not a bad idea.
Even if atm I feel like:

Yes, haha him being clean shaven does make him look a lot younger, i'm not sure exactly how old billy actually is though haha!
oh god,,, oh gOD im actually becoming really attached to moustachioed billy, it kind of fits with his kind of flirty joker-ish charm?? and it certainly makes him look very fitting to the era. of course it's your call what you decide on in the end, billy will always be a cutie regardless of his facial hairstyle!

Basically a "kid", he was 18/19 when war started in 1939.
I was thinking about it more and I've decided to make him have mustache just for one period of time at RAF. Somehow it fits him but it's such weird change for me. I don't think I can handle it. But I like the facial hair idea a lot!
Also I am happy to know that you like my oc' that much ;u;

v-ito In reply to Jimbury [2015-08-17 14:45:46 +0000 UTC]
awww he's just a little baby :-0
and yeah i think that works well, it makes him look like an older man haha would he only have this style when he was older perhaps? and HAHA! I know that feeling, i have a ww1 oc, he's just an ordinary british tommy and he has a moustache but i decided that it made him look to old to be 18 (the age he was when he first joined up in 1916) so i decided he grew it whilst he was in the trenches. haha it was so weird to draw his younger self without it, his face seemed naked!
and haha you're welcome, he really is a lovely character

sorry for super late respond .-.
Uhuhuh, looks like wars make men actually 'level up' (if they have luck). hah XD Tommies were great. Remind me of one title of a movie, "What Is a Man Without a Moustache?" for some reason. Never watched it, looks crappy, only saw the cover few times somewhere in my country. But title is funny. Anyway, feel free to share me that oc, I am interested to see him *u*
I decided to keep my Billy boy "clean" and later in story he might have mustaches or something.

and here he is, my lad Arthur haha v-ito.deviantart.com/art/arthu… this is my most recent drawing, i have some old ones but,,, oh jeez they're bad! i really need to draw him more, but i haven't since i fell out with a friend who used to have another character involved in his story haha so since then, i haven't done much with him! which is sad since he is my first ever oc.
and oh yes! clean billy!
