I guess I've got a Star Wars theme going here. Here is some retro Star Wars for you: Boba Fett. I started this portrait as a quick pencil sketch (not shown) with the intention of tracing it onto watercolor paper so that I could do this in watercolor. But then I just kept adding on to the original sketch which was on copy paper. First I added in all the shading with just pencil...
Then I started to add in some color with colored pencil...not something I work with very often so I wasn't too happy with it at this point, so let's keep working it...
Smoothed out some of the colored pencil lines and added in a background but the shading originally done with pencil has lost its some of its effect...
What do you think? I still like the one in just pencil but it is interesting how far a simple sketch can go!
