Description
A third and last version of my General Grievous. I decided to take on the challenge of using nothing but MS Paint to create a presentable digital painting. The first digital version I made was with SAI, and it only took 2 - 3 hours to paint due to the modern tools it has.
This on the other hand took a couple of weeks, and took some serious hard work. I worked on it on an on and off basis. I've always been a fan of the look and feel of 16-bit computer games, so that was the style I was leaning towards when working on this. I briefly studied an old-school technique called "dithering", because I decided to work with a limited palette.
Painted 100% with (classic XP) MS Paint.
* Update 20/06/12: Painted in a new background to try out a combined dithering and pillow shading technique, and some minor details to the mouth area.
