Alter Ego - Nikita daydreaming

Illustration for a literary coproduction with a friend ^^

Nikita's one of the two main characters, he's a kind of a joyful daydreamer, trying to hold his world as he can. He's a painter who occasionally works for music festivals as a poster designer and for humanitarian organizations.

Basically, he's got African braids, but I've been a little lazy and it's the first time I design him ^^
