The final in my band series is the bassist Winston Campbell. The calm sonic and visual anchor to the band, much like John Entwistle or John Paul Jones. He's also the calmest, and eldest member of the band.
Building off my Aideen drawing, I worked with a more deliberative design for this drawing, though I had to draw the little lightning bolts by cannibalising an existing design asset.

I was basically emphasizing the idea of projected sound with this motif.
