Some Study

Going to be doing a great deal of these type of studies. Grab some reference, grab my tablet, open Photoshop and paint! Great fun to do although quite difficult. I'd say this one took me just under two hours. My goal here isn't to copy the reference perfectly, rather it's to observe the reference and take note of the structure and the lighting, improvising and substituting colours wherever I desire. 

In addition here's a harmless soldier I never got around to uploading :)
