Failure Played in Stereo

Forgive me dA, for I have sinned. This is practically the only drawing I've put to paper in September, and I feel kind of dried up. I hope Autumn Break will give me some time to get out some creativity.

There's a long story behind this guy (OMG not just another random redhead xD). I have most of it written down in my book, kinda sketchy but at least it's on paper! I really think I could write a hundred pages of this story, it's all in my head. Knowing me, though, it'll never leave the comfortable confines of my skull

Oh, and to explain the title: [link]
