Here's my reference pic

And here's what I've got so far - pallet and line sketch (very rough)

Update - colour base

Think I made the King a little too big...

Latest update - beginning to add details...

C&C welcome :)

Haha! I think the king is a little to big as well! But, it's ok. From someone who had never read the story, I just thought it was supposed to be that way, with the beast be burdened by a chubby kid. I only realized he was to big when I compared yours to the reference :D

That is a ton of colors to work with. A lot of them are so similar its hard to tell they are different at all.

Well, it is JPEG'd.

Celri, you should save your images as a PNG to avoid quality loss, Tinypic and Photobucket convert BMP's to JPEG, too.

Flyguy = Isn't the freedom of choice just wonderful? My pallet changes as I work so it basically covers what I migt use and what I'm still going to use and what I've used so...there probably will be quite a few colours but then again I'm going for the pretty look instead of the normal stuff...like the avatar btw...congrats on the challenge placement:)
