When I first tried to draw his hair, I spent a long time trying to get the shape of his hair from the comic, but that'd mess with my art style sometimes, lol. So instead, I just noticed his hair is probably shorter in the back than the other boys' hair is, and that most of it is very messy and not brushed to a specific style.


Because of this, I just normally give him short hair lol. I originally wanted to give him very fluffy hair, but idk how to really draw that, and for some reason, I thought maybe his having long-ish hair made him not look like himself. So short hair it is.


When I draw the hair I keep in mind a few things:

-His hair is short in the back

-Most of it sticks out and is messy


I mostly just eyeball it I'm ngl T_T



(I forgot his horns in this sketch T_T)
