I now have something visual to show. Amphon! I got a general sense of his hair that I like, but there isn't much of a shorthand for it. He has a scarf, a long coat with some large pockets (or so I intended but I ran out of time), and pants... Not sure what these are called but they aren't jeans. They also have pockets on the sides, and the pants is held by a belt. The pockets are about medium large, and he carries tools in them, like knives, even screwdrivers. He should probably have gloves too. (I referred to this image i.pinimg.com/originals/80/e1/c1/80e1c140a172815e2e988b39f3dab87d.jpg)
Trying to get across a boy who keeps to himself, but isn't fearful (except in social situations). He also has a cuteness element with drooping eyes and white freckles. I will work out a color scheme later when I get home.
P. S. It is actually quite difficult to draw a neutral pose, in general and for the sake of reference... Surprisingly poses with more movement implied are easier to gesture out, though that still comes with challenges (foreshortening).
