Vampire Hunter D WIP (Patreon)

Hey everyone! Here's the first rough look at the last poll winner, Vampire Hunter D. I'm cleaving closer to the Amano look than the Kawajiri/Bloodlust take although both will influence the final outcome - I want D to look beautiful but profoundly alien or unapproachable at the same time. I'm recording all these steps so barring any mishaps I should have some process footage when the painting is done! I'll be going for a simpler portrait composition as opposed to last month's multi-figure MP Evas.
