Having spent so long with digital, I wanted to get back into traditional, I havn't painted with gouache paints for over a year :/
Being inspired from the weekends workshop with Nathan Fowkes I wanted to try out the method of using a 3d model as a base to design colour and light.
Here is the final painting -
Sarting with greyscale to work out the light - Then adding colour choice - Painting - Adding character and depth - Highlighting certain objects and the character - Light adjustments

Some of the areas such as the tower in the bottom right were slightly distorted but I knew the character would be covering the mistake. Ideally I should of fixed this but with time not on our hands I knew not to worry on what would not be seen.
