The Queen of Amazon drawing: a visual progression.
Another fun drawing! I did remind myself to photo from inception to final result so this post is not only fun but informative as well.
The amazonian queen starts off as a naked lady. This part is important because the way her muscles are shaped and how the flesh reacts to her position will influence how the clothes and weapons look. It's the most important step
Now it is time to sketch the clothes, the accessories and the weapons. Notice how this si done OVER the original drawing so her leg is still flexed, inside the boot for example. That's how you get the natural look.
With all this in place, it's easy but still very important part to add the finishing touches and bring her out of the page. Look alive and fierce!
Great technique, like how you dealt with her face.
Very cool illustration. Thank you.
thank you
