Looks like you found a nervous Dante out in the forest, poor little kid looks lost! Hopefully he can find his way back to safety before the ghosts and monsters find him at night. That forest looks like it could get really scary after dark. So scary he might not sleep for a week!

This was a fun experiment with some soft shading combined with cel shading... and I think I like it! I also picked up a couple of fun tricks from Treehouse Retreat which I used here for fun. This also uses an AI base, which I traced from the prompt data below. The base is inside of my scraps folder here, and feel free to make use of it for all kinds of fun with your own characters!
This is a colab between me and AI, and I decided to modify my signature to show what cool things I can make with the help of my GPU :). I built out the prompt for this months ago, but I stored the prompt data and I think it's below. No idea why it decided that this pose looked like "sneaking" XD.
