BACKSTORY

Describe their childhood : From a young age Jack was always interested in the underworld circus. His parents were very against it so he would sneak out to watch the show every Saturday when it opened. Usually only older demons visit the circus consistently so the owners of the circus began to notice that a small child was coming to their show every single opening. One day around the 10th consistent time that Jack had shown up, the ringleader invited him up to attempt the tightrope, Jack excitedly accepted and practically ran to try it; he wasn't very fond of the acrobatic acts at the time but he was just as excited to finally be able to participate in the circus. He got onto the tightrope and started attempting to walk across, of course he fell off before even getting to the second step and got a pretty bad bruise from it. The entire circus was laughing but Jack was still just as excited, he had never felt more free being up in the air like that. From then on, instead of just watching the circus Jack would study the acts carefully and follow the acts at his own house. 

Describe their  teenage years : After a year of following the habit of practicing and sneaking out, Jack started to get comfortable. This was an extremely bad move, he was almost caught several times and then one night he was finally caught. His dad happened to be going out at the time and caught Jack sneaking going into the tent to watch the show; Jack saw his dad and tried to blend in with the crowd but couldn't due to the huge height difference between a young child and all of the adults entering. Jack was put under house arrest and all of his acrobatics practice equipment was found and was destroyed he resented his parents for doing this and in a fit of rage packed up this things, stole a knife and a few hundred dollars from his dad's dresser and ran away while his parents were gone. The only thing he left behind was one children's baton he gave to his little sister who was just a toddler at this time, a gift to remember him by. Attached inside the end of the baton was a letter to her stating his name and the city he would be leaving to that he added in hopes that when his sister was old enough she would find it and they would be able to see each other again. He knew it was unlikely she would find it and he didn't really care if she found it but it did help him think that he was doing something right and besides; he thought that would be a super awesome news story if she ever found it.  With that, he ran off and started heading towards the city.

Describe their adult years: After a few months of walking and hitchhiking, Jack finally reached his destination. It was the biggest city in the entire underworld, complete with casinos, stores, restaurants, and other various things to do. Most importantly, circuses were in big demand and always hiring. After buying some new clothes and finding a small cheap apartment to temporarily rent Jack went out to find a job. Unfortunately,  he did not realize that every circus in the city already had an acrobat and knife throwers. He was out of options, he has only trained for acrobatics and had no backup plan, he couldn't go back home after leaving in such a huge hot-headed outburst. He could survive on street performances for a little while but it wouldn't raise enough to pay rent for more than a year or two. He was just about to give up and go back to take the embarrassment of going back home when one month before he ran out of the money to pay rent, a tall, slender demon came up to him during a street performance. The man was named Zain, and he was a ringmaster for a new circus. He asked Jack if he was willing to work with him in it as an acrobat, Jack said yes right away and began working there, first helping to set up until the circus was well off enough to begin. Jack and Zain had bedcome closer after this and eventually started dating, this is where their journey together sets off.

Hoy hoy min yoy! I'm here from Project Comment.

First off, I'd want to point out the way you drew that tail makes it look like a stick. Tails are generally supposed to be flexible and windy. The twist and turn about. Why not curve that tail in some directions?

The proportions could also use a lot of work. That right arm looks very uneven. That lower left leg is too long, but I assume you exaggerated a bit on purpose to make it look like he is leaping or something? The body is so thin, it makes the head look too big.

I've said this many times on to other deviants, and I'll say it again. Starting out with basic shapes will help make drawing easier.

Hope to see some improvements from you in the future fellow llama!
