NKT Soldier

Design inspiration came from an Indonesian traditional dish called Nasi Kuning Tumpeng.

I wanna learn some coloring stuff so I took an old char design and modified it to have something to color. I gave value to it, then when I tried to color it with an overlay layer on top, and it didn't really work. I assume I need to do a lo of practices on how to color.

Here are the outline and valued drawing:


Here are the coloring attempt I made to the same design above, simplified, actually this was the original char design:


By the time I colored it I got frustrated 'cause it was really ugly.
So I made some thinking, loosen up a bit, then experiment to end up to these images:


Way better than the first attempt, so I added some fast background..


Just now I realized, how come the background's colors became acceptable straight forward?
Probably because I was loose.

Gonna practice more..
