General perspective
Some quick rendering in photoshop and ready for printing and transferring onto paper.
I kept the background separate to always be able to check the perspective.
Working on the pencil underdrawing
Finished pencils. I do them pretty detailed as it sill counts as pencil drawing practice to me, even if it ends up being painted over completely.
Underpainting
A color study after the underpainting and before jumping into colour.
My setup :) It's really basic, I painted it almost entirely with Zorn palette, except the sky and some tiny bit of cad yellow for the armor.
