Island Practice Paint

Wanted to branch out a bit and try something I don't do often.  I need to start getting better at environments and scenery, and I gotta start sometime.  I got a little rushed toward the end, but overall I'm pretty happy with it.

Runner Sketches

Preliminary drawing for an illustration I'm working on, and an attempt at establishing the basic planes of the figure.  The sketch has since been worked on and improved.

And here's a discarded version of the drawing.  A little too goofy for the purpose of the illustration.
