Neil Terwilliger Sheet

Description

This was done for reference for myself for these upcoming "Cecil and Neil" comics. Poor kid, makes me wonder what happened to him after he was sent to the "Scared Spitless" program.

If they actually expand on his character, I would like him to not only ignore the thought of revenge/vendetta(Bart didn't reveal him, he just bumped into him but he did take Neil's tickets to France), but also speak to his imaginary friend(in the writer's case, he should face the audience, like a Shakespearian comedy-genre character). Maybe that's taking the "Mel" route, but in my mind, I'd rather prefer him have that treatment than deal with writers that have no imagination whatsoever.l

Even though I don't think this was intentional, I believe that the people who did the comic actually were quite brilliant in making him different from his uncle in many ways. I'll just list down one of the physical features, his nose is upturned like Cecil's but not emulating Robert's nose(see the backflash of Cecil and Robert when they were children, Robert still has a down turned nose).

Cool. Making reference sheets is fun, I like how you listed all those little details, like his front hair bangs.
For some reason he reminds me of Hermes' son in Futurama.
