Hey Guys

This is my first challenge, this was kinda interesting, so I thought I should join in:)

So this is my first take on it, really rough..

@Solstice - You can do whichever you prefer to do or even mix the two.

Happy new Year everyone, decided I'll give this one a whirl!

So you guys need some pump up music while working on this thing? Here you go! The lyrics couldn't be more perfect.

First, this:

@ donaldyigeorge - I really like the progress you've made so far. Excited to see how it could look all fleshed out.

@ Blindrat - Very nice start! I like what you're doing with the idea of the character, going outside the box!

And while we're at it... here are some rough scribbles to get me going on this challenge.
