I pretty much have everything ready for detailing other then the small cloth bit on his shoulder which i will add once he is posed. Think musketeer TV show cloth just a small version. Still have to add something around his knees and feet if they will be see in the illustration. Anyway back to studying.

Metal bits all done.. just the lower legs to clean up. I'll try and figure out what pose to put him in for the illustration I might not have to do much on the legs depending how much you see them to save some time and get it done by the 30th.

I still have to sculpt up the jagged rocks in the for ground to match the back ground but i have a
direction now. This is just a straight up bpr render no layers yet. I also have to add his cloak and fix up some of the detail that i lost in the posing. Sabers need to be longer as well.
