Starting Sketch for a Final Fantasy IV Cecil Rydia Painting

Описание: Continuing with my recent classic RPG oil painting series, this one features a focused discussion on the initial outline of Cecil, Rydia, and a Chocobo from Final Fantasy IV. My initial sketches for oil paintings don't feature any pencil drawing; instead I rough out subjects and major features using oil paint thinned down with a bit of linseed oil for some loose, informal structure.
