This is a request piece I just accepted for a Mandalorian short-order cook/demolitions expert. For this piece, I'm starting with two images, which will be digitally compositied after all inks and colors are completed to make a single piece. Here are the pencil sketches of Ja'eeth both in and out of armor.

UPDATE:

I have the inks for both pictures done. Let me know what you think.

UPDATE 2:

I have the first of the color renderings done minus the background. It is of course her unarmored. Let me know if there are any changes needed before I move on. Also, which hair color is more accurate?

UPDAT 3:

The colors on the pic of her in armor are done sans background. Let me know about any changes needed.

UPDATE 4: the background for her pic in armor is complete. Let me know what you think.

The next step will be the background for her without armor, then combining the two pics into one.

UPDATE 5: the background is done on the unarmored pic. Let me know what you think. IF there are no changes needed, I will then merge the two pics into one.

UPDATE 6:

And here is the final merged piece. Let me know what you think.

Both looking pretty good. You might want to make Mando's helmet a little smaller. It might just be the position he's in or the lack of other armor, but it looks a little incongruous.

That's because of two factors. First, it's on a woman, thus a amaller build, and secondly, it is fitting over her head with some room for padding and other gadgets within. I drew her head forst, then drew the helmet over it, so, yes, it is the right size. If you look closely, you can barely see the original outline of her head and neck.

That's awesome, Tramp. I can't wait to see her when she is finished. I am glad you gave her room in the helmet for padding and so forth. She is a crafty one, that Ja'eeth.

OOooooo, I see the difference. Lol, its like looking at one of those children's game where you have to pick out the subtle changes. One is really blonde, and the other is more red then blonde. I like the second one better, the one that is more red then blonde.

I am liking it a lot. I look forward to see her when she is done. Thanks Tramp!

Great touch with the patty cooking. It looks all great to me, so, yeah... blend the two together!

Works for me! Looks great, Tramp! Thank you so much for the work you put into it.
