So during these first stages, I'm just concentrating on getting down some basic color and value relationships, and filling up the entire canvas with a block-in. Detail isn't really concerning me at this point - that stuff all comes later.

Still MUCH to do. But in the meantime, if you have questions or comments, fire away!

Remarkable likeness of Bautista, even in the early stages!
