I had a little time to kill before my sister got off the PC (I was at home and without my commission work to work on, stupid me), so I screwed around with index cards and markers, and this was the outcome:

It's just a thing of a boy with magenta hair I drew out straight in marker, cut out and stuck to another index card as a background. I'm quite pleased with this effect. I'm hoping to get some decent painting ideas from doing these. I used to sketch out in pen on index cards a lot at my old art school. I've had a couple successful paintings come out of these, so it's not all a waste of time like I think some days haha!
Once I get a better design and a tighter execution down, I'll be offering these as a cheapo headshot/bust commission option. This was fun and only took about 30-45 minutes to do, but then again that was without a lot of thought and just screwing around.
I needed a break, and this provided it.
