Woof, okay, this one took a little longer as I had family visiting for a few weeks and didn't have time to draw much but here he is! Angel redesign time!

Not too different from his canon design, just a few minor changes.

- Took a bit of inspiration for his clothes from zoot suits! A major part of the zoot suit was a long coat with wide lapels and wide padded shoulders. They were also popular among Italian Americans in the 1940's, were showy and flashy and with wartime rations on fabric, an inherently disobedient act associated with rebelliousness. Angel 100% would have worn and known of zoot suit fashion when he was alive and I like to think he'd adapt it to and with modern and developing fashion trends in Hell. It's a part of his heritage and a symbol of defiance of authority or convention, which is a huge part of his character.

- Make him MORE pink!! Hot pink, deep pink, pastel pink, bubblegum pink, any and every shade of pink is Angel's color! So I added a couple more touches of pink to his outfit, adding pink hearts on his boots and making his all his gloves pink and his coat lapel pink. (Again)

- Adding little heart motifs into his outfit, hearts on the boots, coattails and a heart button on his coat. (Still undecided if I should've made the pink center of his bowtie a heart or not)

- Added a small twist on the coat by giving it extra long coattails, which sort of symbolize and stand in for an extra set of limbs, giving him the appearance of having 8 limbs all the time.
