I actually DONT have the time for this while my wife sleeps I use my laptop next to her... if we go somewhere I make her drive while I draw... those drawings were done in the car Its all I think about these days...

I didnt use any onion skin paper... Is that like vellum? I actually cheated in Photoshop I threw a darker color beneath my drawing, set the drawing layer to darken and used the gradient tool beneath those two layer to bring out the lighter areas... the first one had no PS help... but it did have the help of my friends 4 year old daughter scribbling on the bottom

first render of the cappin' How can I make him look more captain like? some sort of emblem or medals
