Although it takes time (and it’s probably just as well it does for the plot’s sake), he gains the respect of his peers not just through his words, but his actions. And for a gang to work, it’s about a balance between those two that brings people together to trust each other. 

He sees the best qualities in people when they’re at their lowest, and uses the trust he has built up with them in order to help guide them down the right path. This is especially true in the case of his interactions with Mista.

But perhaps one of the most important things is that he still has flaws! As previously mentioned above by OP, he considers and respects others before he thinks about himself, and his sense of responsibility trumps his own wants and desires through a stubbornness that can blind his common sense. 

Adding to that, putting his own life on the line is of no concern to him and if it means sacrificing himself (and those who are with him) he’d see to it that his sacrifice helps get his surviving allies one step closer to the end goal- rather than jeopardise all the hard work he and his allies have done by saving himself.  

I just loved what had been written so far about my favourite JoJo that I was very happy to add to it! 

Giorno’s character

Vento Aureo suffers from the same main character problem in Stardust Crusaders and Diamond is Unbreakable (the latter is forgiven since it’s a slice of life type of story) so its rather understandable that people don’t view him as main protagonist, and I agree with that. However, saying he has no personality, I have to disagree. I think Araki tries to be subtle with Giorno’s character, as opposed to other jojos who has noticeable quirks (with the exception of johnny). So, this is my interpretation of my favourite jojo (giogio)’s personality, abilities and weaknesses. 

He has his own set of morals (He has no qualms in committing petty crimes, but he draws the line on taking someone’s life. Though, he doesn’t hesitate to kill for self defense)

He has great deductive skills. He’s able to deduce someone’s character and thought process just by looking at their actions.

He’s incredibly perceptive, the first to notice something is wrong. 

He hates involving other people in his problems (normal citizens, for example)

He’s usually cautious and methodical in making judgements, but when in panic/despair, he tends to make rash decisions (E.g: In the White Album fight, he drove into the canal to buy time and urges Mista to swim to the shore, without accounting that Ghiaccio is still in the water and could freeze Mista should he attempt to dive into the water.)

He’s willing to gamble his own life to achieve his goal (Whether it’s to win his peer’s trust or defeating the enemy)

He values life and trust greatly (see no. 1 and no. 5)

While he’s always seen serious in the company of others, when left alone he becomes more expressive.

His overly cautious and complex thinking leads to him having trouble with simple problems ( E.g: When his lighter from Polpo had its fire extinguished, he struggled on what to do instead of reigniting it.)

He adapts and follows the rules rather than fighting it, though he still follows his own code (He’s respectful against his senior, Abbacchio, though he will argue with him when he has a different opinion.)

He has a habit of making outlandish ideas (Putting a lighter on top of a bread, stealing 100 cars, etc) thanks to his rather complex thought process. (this applies to every jojo, to be honest).

He is confident and has a great understanding of his skills.

He has vast knowledge in biology (Vaccines, human anatomy, plant and animal behaviour, etc)

His ultimate dream is to become a gang-star, like his hero : help making other people’s life better, just like his hero made his. This includes exterminating corruptions, drugs, anything he deems unfit for Italy.

There’s probably still more, but this is what I can gather. Feel free to add more. Hopefully the anime will add more to this.

Formidable indeed... Such a strange series xD Can’t believe the credits in the last episode were 8 mins long x’D

Throwback to the potato-eating scene, with some extras I added. Just imagine how enraged Shadis would be if he saw this xD  I’m excited for the next AoT episode to come out, but there’s only 3 left in the season ;-;

The power of editing is strong with these ones.

You’ll never truly realise until you try it for yourself, but Illumi’s face looks good on anyone x’D

you've improved so much that's awesome!

Thank you so much for saying that! ^-^ I still have a long way to go, but digital art is a lot of fun to make!

The first is Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop, I drew him on my iPad when I first started getting into digital drawing using a super dodgy drawing app x’D Proper layers did not exist for me- or on the app, so it took a very long time to draw and colour. 

Aaaand... a pear that is actually a superhero(?)... which is also on my deviantart. Oh, how far I’ve come... And fancy using tumblr for the second day in a row... (Btw, images may look blurry but if you click on them their resolution improves!)

A digital colouring I made for a forum competition last year. It was the first time I tried colouring so it’s not perfect but I am happy with it.
