Gears of War Contest

So no updates in a while. I've been spending most of my free time since the last update on the Gears of War 3 contest on deviant. Still not done, there were a few iterations and changes in ideas during the beginning, but here is a work in progress. I finished the black and white/value studies and have been on the coloring for about 2-3 hours. Overall I think I have spent so far (on this piece alone and not counting the scrapped ones before) about 6-7 hrs.
