African Tribes - #42 CDC

This June the theme of the Character Design Challenge on Facebook, were African Tribes. My entry for this month are, Abyaz (means “white”, “bright”, “pure") a young musician, and Ada (means "ornament" and "beauty") his little puppy of ankole. 
They belong to the Vitiligo Tribe (invented) population particularly known for the stains caused by Vitiligo (hence the name), a chronic condition characterized by a depigmentation of portions of skin, sometimes even the hair that grows in an area affected by vitiligo become white. 
I had a lot of fun creating these characters, I hope you like them !
