When I created Glitchtown – like, half a year ago – I didn’t really know just how I wanted to draw Leslie. Thus, he ended up looking like a piece of crap in the first strips – just see for yourself. Believe me, I’m aware of how bad he looks.
Anyway, he has really developed as a character, and I though I share this with you:

I’m very happy with his design now. ^^ I might make this picture into a wallpaper later.

The eyes are a bit to small, but still.
So, like I promised, I’ve started practising drawing Isaac, and trying to make his look more fluent.
I knew from the start that I needed to change his “face line” or whatever one might call it – the line that lapses from his eye down to his jaw, as an outline – because I just didn’t have any definite way of drawing that. His face needs more structure.
So I practised.
Some are of course crap, and some are better. I tried making his outline more smooth and straight, and not as complicated as before. I’ll develop that further.
Another thing that needed changing was his eyebrows; I need them to not be so stiff. He needs to be able to make expressions with them, without it looking awkward (Leslie has the same problem). So I made them thinner, sure, but also a bit “rougher”, I would say.
All the sketches above have a real standard nose, not sure if I’ll keep it like that. I’ll develop that further to.
And that’s a crappy drawing.
I noticed that he looked really cool in a moustache, as such:
I won’t make such a drastic change though, but it’s good to know he fits with it. Maybe he’ll grow one, some day?
That’s if for now. I’ll probably make another post tomorrow, noon-ish. Stay tuned.
