Could you post up a few of your sketches so we know what he looks like? :)

People who write below their abilities in order to crank out tons of books and make a buck. Especially Christian authors who do that. Outsiders judge us for it, and make fun of us for it, and it makes Jesus look bad. We of all artists on earth should be the most concerned with doing our best possible work at all times. We of all people should write with all our hearts, as if writing for the Lord and not for men.

Do you need a personality? if so, what is the style and theme of this anime? what type of things will he be doing? Is he a good guy or a bad guy? Do you know what he looks like? I am always chalk full of ideas if I have a narrow enough scope.

Something my dear Ink-sensei recommended to me was checking out those online "doll" sites. They usually have TONS of haircuts and styles, and it's a big help to me. I'm sure she can get you more info (sorry to put ya on the spot, Ink-sensei >.>)

Give him a funny hat.

[Note: This is actually not recommended as a way to tell characters apart in fiction. But it might be a good visual cue in manga.]
