Here is another technique study with the inks and charcoal on gessoed board. This time the victim is Boba Fett, yeah, it's Boba Fett. I know what you're thinking, "Dude, I saw Empire and Jedi and Boba Fett's get up is green." Two words: Holiday Special. I like how some of this came out. In retrospect I don't think I would have used the charcoal to render in the dark areas on the fabric, gloves or the wrist guard. Those areas look real muddy and after the art was shrunk down a lot of the textures from the charcoal and gesso got lost. Originally I was going to paint him up in his classic getup, but I thought I'd do something different.

Like I said, I was originally just going to paint this in his traditional green get up (that is why there are all the scratches and dents in his armor), but then at the last minute I decided to change it up a bit. I know with the Holiday Special outfit there are no scratches, but they were already drawn in.

I think the scratches and dents add more realism to it. The armor should look like that.
