Thanks greatly! I prefer to have greater detail in my refs, so even if I only plan to draw the subject at a lower level of detail, dramatic or high render shots will be informed by the ref

You're very welcome, and of course! To me, the more details, the greater I can visualize it! Sure, it's a pain the neck, but it's worth it at the end, especially when it's a character I had in my head for the longest

I just wish my sketch book was bigger for it, lol

When I do painted style pieces, detail is a very lovely thing haha! However, I intend to create comics, and when you have multi-panel pages, overcrowding becomes an issue. Too many details makes the page too busy and makes it hard to focus the readers.

  OK, that is very true. That's why in every multi-panels/page, you have to show little blurs in the backgrounds? Like how they do it in animes?

  Blurring can be an excellent tool to avoid overcrowding panels, yes! There are other methods too, but in casual setting blur works well to make a character feel set in the world without distracting the reader from the narrative/details you're moving the story with. I still have much to practice with the art of making comics, but I've been focusing on concept art like this so I can get into practicing actual pages~
