Hello ^^

After I visited this part of the forum for the first time this week, I thought I could give it a try and ask for some advice. (I make a second post for my question xD)
I might dumb a few of my drawings here later, if I feel like it xD

I'm always open for help, advice and critique ^^

I wanted to redraw an really old Image of my OC Yue.
(Especially because I mismatched his piercings and the drawing wasn't as good back then)
This is the old piece from 2012:

And this is my WIP of the new Drawing so far:


Now to my question:
Yue has quite a few piercings and I'm a bit at a loss how I should add the piercings on his ear the best, so it looks kind of realistic in the way it is attached to his ear.
Here is a pic of his animal-form, where you can have a better look at his piercings:

I think for the one that's connected and has the star it (the three pronged one)should start at the ear tip and then kinda work it's way down. Maybe make the three one a bit stretched out?

It's a amazing piece though!

Thank you very much for your suggestion ^o^
I'll try it out next time I get the time to continue this one (I'm working on it for a few months now? I guess? XD)

And sorry for the late answer. My router broke and I had no internet until I got a new one ^^

And thank you so much ^o^

That's alright. A storm fried mine a few times, so I understand the pain.

Oh, that's unlucky. Hope yours is safe now ^^
