Power Button Part I - Thumbnail to Final Rough (Patreon)

Process from initial thumbnail sketch to the final rough pass before the linework begins.

For me his is always the most relaxed stage of the drawing, but generally I try to stay close the the thumbnail as I've always liked the chaotic energy of the tiny scribbles from the first ideas. The goal is to refine the design just enough so that it's more readable at a larger scale but still maintains the feel from the beginning of the process.
