New skill, Force Paint

So we had to go in and colour a layout we did at some point in the first year. I decided to choose my Star Wars themed kitchen. I went with a cloud city Bespin feel, that ongoing sunset look. I also threw in a Miraluka. Which doesn't make much sense but hell, there is a lot that doesn't in Star Wars.

So for character design I had to come up with a character to reproduce in three different styles. I was thoroughly stumped and frustrated at first but quickly got some inspiration and threw this together. The three styles from left to right are marker and ink, with a Ralph Steadman feel. The next is my own, in a digital format. Third is based on Yoshitaka Amano's style. I didn't have watercolor on hand so I used gouache, I was happy with it.
