Observations

Across all four portraits, the style uses monochrome graphite-like drawing with abundant fine contour lines, loose exploratory marks, and crosshatched shading. Large expressive eyes, stylized facial proportions, and dramatic hair shapes give the character portraits a comic-like illustrative quality while retaining a visibly hand-sketched surface.
