This thumbnail sketch was done on a scrap of paper while I was in line for ice cream. You just never know... Click on any illustration for an enlargement. |
| The first full size sketch: It's basically the thumbnail tightened up some. At this stage I had a face shield attached to the helmet, but that was eventually discarded. |

This stage was really nothing more than looking at some reference material and tightening up the sketch. |
| Water-based
dyes are applied as a base coat for the colors to come and to cover the white of the paper where I don't want it. I'll be using colored
pencils in the next step, and I don't want to see those little flecks
of white paper showing through where they shouldn't. |

| The colored pencil stage, where most of the work is done. | |
| A bit of acrylic paint to recover the highlights lost in earlier stages...and it's done. |  |
