I'm primarily working on the diffuse texture for the next week or so. (Sorry, had to clean up dead links, I'm a dumbass who doesn't…

Hello! Here is my latest work. A lowpoly-ish character with hand-painted textures. It's a young sloth wizard. I don't know any background story for him yet. Hope you like him!
