I tried my best to get it as realistic-looking as possible, using that photo you gave me the link as reference. I also decided to do something different and did it as a non-inked badge...they're a little harder to do cuz instead of inking the drawing, I have to trace out everything with a particular colour of pencil crayon (eg: black for the cloak, blue for the eye, golden-yellow for the spots and cloak ring, etc etc), then erase the regular pencil sketch and then colour it all in markers and then colour and shade it with pencil crayons. Whew!
I tried getting newt part as dark as I could go, but after a while, the black just didn't want to lay down anymore on it...Otherwise, I think it turned out pretty good :)
