    It's been a while but I need to get these Samurai done in the next week or so.
    So using the templates I have made clothing for them, and using the head template sketched up a few kabuto (helmets).
    With the kabuto I have several pieces that will overlap with the head. These are traced from my sketches in Illustrator. Most of my stuff is live traced, but with things that require a lot of symmetry I will trace them with the pen tool from half the object and then reflect it.
    I will be doing weapons today and will post those later.

    Here are the weapon images.
    I almost have all the parts ready.
    It's taken 18 8.5x11 sheets of sketches and tracings to get this far.
    I will start posting some images with color soon.

    Good stuff DN. I always like to see character studies.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

    Ok, so all the pieces are done then live traced.
    Now I assemble them in Illustrator with the various parts on separate layers.
    I'll be starting the color work today.
