Here is an early WIP of a picture despicting a young female squire having to travel the road alone after a battle.

The picture tries to despict a young traveller having to don an inappropriately size suit of armour, and being armed to a degree and yet having to travel somewhere, whilst being weighed down

Before I set the colours in stone, I would appreciate any advice or comments on how to improve the overall scene.

Thank You

Well, I decided to add some colours and the picture sems to be taking its current form at the moment.

If anyone has any good suggestions of how to paint armour better, I'm all for it!



Unfortunately, the colour started to set in even more, and this resulting picture is formed. Thus, from a suggestion of a yougn female squire, I ended up with a kobold squire instead!

Any suggestions on improving this picture to make a pleasing final?
Thanks

I felt the picture above, too kitsch and decided to restart again with the original sketh. here is the resultant effect

I'm having trouble with that pose... The perspective and the proportions just aren't right. Legs are far too short, the hanging arm is far too long... Otherwise the pose just feels very static. I love your rendering style but I think you need to resolve your sketch before going further.

i agree with the person above. I think you should paint it at a higher resolution too, since it looks like a low resolution, unless it's just the .jpg compression or somthing...

Heh, guess I'll stick to simpler sketches.
Let me see if I can OC this picture and try a simpler approach
