Vulcan Raven color rough

I've always wanted to paint a series of portraits of my favorite cartoon/comicbook/ and videogame characters, so here's the first! Vulcan Raven from Metal Gear Solid. Just a sketch for now, but I'll post WIP's as I move along.

The figure in the middle was me drawing poorly. My linework has suffered over the years and it doesn't get any worse than getting used to a cintiq then having your computer break and being forced to resort to the old Wacom tablet/laptop combo you used to use years ago. Anyway, I tried to make the initial pose more dynamic with the recomposing of the figure on the right.
