This is the picture I'm entering in a contest on Crunchyroll. If I win, the picture will be featured in the volume 20 of The Seven Deadly Sins manga. If I lose, it'll still be on the 3rd or 4th page of the contest thread forever and ever until CR's site goes under.

Since I already gushed about T7DS enough, I'll tell you a little bit about the process of this drawing. I didn't want to directly copy any promo pictures that featured Ban, and the stock photos on DevinatART weren't inspiring me, so I actually referenced a tiny, low-res picture of Jon Bon Jovi that I had downloaded over a decade ago. It was something about those red pants he was wearing that made me think of Ban. I couldn't resist drawing him curled up on a couch.

I'd like to take this time to thank Envythejealous, Zuzu, and Elricz for their support when I made a World post about this drawing. I wish I could dedicate this to all three of you at once.

Tools used

This drawing belongs to me, but you can use it for wallpapers and cards on theO. If I see this on DevinatART, I will hunt down whoever posted it and fill them with regret.
