Taken from a screenshot within Facerig, I posed the character named Taj, changed a few colors, and posed him to my liking, then took a screenshot. Then, I put the screenshot into ArtRage 4 and started tracing. I added some special touches to my own, and picked a few different color preferences.

I started the tracing with his head, facial features, then added his jacket, and disabled the outlines when I was finished with them. At the end of the drawing session, I made a custom background, which was inspired by my recent reading of Viking history. It's the thatched-roof building in the background. I decided to also add a small bit of autumn scenery, and I made sure to add plenty of shading and some highlights, too.

This was very fun to create, and took quite a few hours to finish making. It was a blast! Hoping to get better in this skill, and deepen my historical studies.
