Description Aah! I know, I know. No one ever wants to see the same pic twice. It's been a slow month thus far, spent entirely in the sketchbook or collabing in Photoshop. A couple peeps wanted to know about the step BEFORE the first step in them Steps pics, though, so I figured I'd upload this. My pencils - or at least, the pencils I intend to ink myself - aren't very defined. They're pretty much the "cleaned sketch." But they're by no means how things start. What you see in the top left is typically how most pics begin for me, or at least after their initial thumbnail. Markers and slop. Thanks for lookin'... Ya' know... Again.

Full size of the colored finish are at: ([link] )

Side Note: Traditional or digital... I mean, 3/4ths of the Deviation is traditional stuffs, after all. Ever since we got sub-sub-categories to Fan Art, I'm always second guessin' where to stick stuff now.

Wow. This is brilliant! The perspective looks stunning, interesting and it's Leeee! ^^

The idea of showing us four of the stages you go through is cool as I often prefer looking at peoples sketch work. And you look like you have a great method that works for you, it really does look 3D at the end.

Beautiful! ^___^

this is useful!! you should do more of these initial concept sketches, would really help out artists who are struggling to get past that point

It's amazing how far a rough sketch can go. Once again, the finished pic looks great.

I have Rock Lee eyebrows, you know.

But being a girl, it's painful when getting them waxed.
