The creation of “Die wilden Felder und der Krieger” – Part 3

Doodles

I found some more early sketches of the fields and the warrior when I was looking for the concepts of the secondary characters.

So you have to start it all over again.

These cloth sketches are obviously influenced by some samurai references…
