I decided that I've done quite a bit of work tonight, and so I did some more work on Ardor. Although I'm not drawing it for myself, I'm finding it really relaxing and pleasant to work on, which is what I need to bring my stress levels down, which are rocketing at the moment due to my final assessments coming up in under a week.

So far I've blocked in rough colours and loose detail. Need to check with the owner of the character if the colour of the wings are alright, and then I'll continue.
He's supposed to be a black panther, so as I add more detail his fur will get darker. Painting black fur is no where near has difficult as it used to be, so I guess I'm improving in photoshop? I hope so, god knows I'm trying hard enough :P
I used this for reference for the colours on the wing. The wing itself is still bothering me, but I don't really know what to do about it to be honest. I'll just have to keep at it and hopefully something will click in my head and I'll be able to make it look less deformed.
I forgot to mention earlier too that I used this picture as a rough reference when I initially sketched out Ardor's face.
