Hey! I wanted to do something else for a change, so I thought I'd play around with aesthetics a bit. Make something that's actually nice to look at. Oh, the ego.
Anyway, there's no story or anything behind it all, so I'll just present you with some pictures of the current progress. We'll see where it ends up. I'm currently working on the proportions and facial features (hence anatomy study), but it should become a drapery and colour/lighting study too, eventually.
A bit of concepting. Quick and dirty paintover of the model, that I ought to redo:

Here's my current version, left, next to Ruz's paintover of my original, right; I took plenty of hints, and am eternally grateful, but I think his version looks underfed)
Thanks!
