[Classic] Battlestar Galactica Artwork

I've started a personal art project, I'm aiming to finish by May 13th. I'm working on classic Battlestar Galactica colored pencil drawings. One drawing will feature Apollo and Starbuck and another will feature Boomer.

I am creating them because I will be going to Motor City Comic Con again this year with the Rebel Legion and 501st Legion. I saw that two of the guests were going to be Richard Hatch (Apollo) and Dirk Benedict (Starbuck), so I started a drawing of Apollo and Starbuck to hopefully have them sign. I recently discovered that Herbert Jefferson Jr. (Boomer) will also be there, so I've started sketching out the line drawing for what will be a colored pencil drawing of Boomer to hopefully have him sign.

Here is my progress so far:

Droid Sketch

I've been focusing on costume commissions for over a year, it's time to dust off the art stuff and get sketching! I have a commission for a collage-type drawing featuring as many Star Wars (original trilogy) droids as possible in a sort of "Jawa sand crawler/droids for sale" sort of scene.

Last night, I sat down with my books and chose a droid to sketch out. I will sketch each droid individually and then arrange the individual sketches together. This way, I can arrange, rearrange, etc. until I am satisfied. If I need to take a droid out, or add one, it will be easier with individual sketches. After I'm satisfied with the layout, I'll do a line drawing of all the droids arranged the way I want them. Then, I'll transfer that to good paper, and begin the coloring process (this will be a colored pencil, my specialty).

Here's the first droid:

In my book he's gold, but I will be coloring him silver to match the droid seen in the Jawas' sand crawler when R2 and 3PO were aboard.
