The Witcher 3 - Geralt WIP

Description

Step 1 - Started with the sword. It's actually pretty small, hard to tell in this picture because it's more zoomed in on it.. The edges of the sword are still pretty rough, there's going to be a background to the picture and the edges of the sword have a lot of white, so it's not really finished yet ._.' Other than that, there's not much else to say yet. It's going to be a pretty big picture, so it's going to take awhile. I'll try to keep at it at a decent pace.

Step 2 - Moved on from the sword to the shoulder. Kinda just half assing the chain mail, but when the drawing is finished it'll look fine. The weird shadows on the shoulder are actually shadows from trees/branches that'll be in the background eventually.

Step 3 - Started the background. Still need to blur most of it up and darken it in a few spots, add more branches etc. Sorry for the boring updates xD. Since I'm right handed, I try my best to go from the top left to the bottom right to avoid resting my hand on top of parts I've drawn. This can lead to pretty boring progress ._.'

Step 4 - Added more background, finished one of his arms. Hopefully now that some of the background is in there the lighting and weird shadows make a bit more sense =]. Pretty happy with the way things are going so far, but it's still going to take a long ass time to finish this ._.

Step 5 - Finally on to the fun stuff :D. His face and hair is going to require a lot of patience. Lot's of small details, and it's all very bright on this side due to the lighting. The other side of his face will be much quicker since it's almost all in shadow.

Step 6 - Got some time off work to continue working on this =]. Face still needs a lot of work. Mouth needs a slight reshape, beard/hair needs more depth. Lighting on the bright side needs some light details. Still lots of work to do =\.

Step 7- So much time feels like such little progress due to my astounding ability at procrastination. Not much to say, just some more work on the face and armor. Chain mail continues to have literally no actual pattern because of my laziness and just looks like a bunch of noodles.

Step 8- . _ . So much work... Just need to finish the chest (still one more fucking chain mail piece) and the trophy he'll be holding in his hand.

Step 9 - Just need to do light details on the chest/straps, but really all that's left is the trophy he's holding now =]. This'll be the last WIP before it's done.

Step 10- Done =].
