Final project -Character design

This show my progress on my final project which is character design . :D

First, I start with a black and white sketches . 

Then I paint with base color . 

Next, I add in some of the darker color to my painting.

I add more highlight on it and make it more 3D .

Almost done, I balanced the color and add on more detail . Then , I choose a good image for my background .

 Finally ,  with some of the image and merge together to make it realistic . My painting was done :D
