After I complete a sketch I'll have a solid idea how the lighting and shadows will go, but I've got into the habit of doing a lighting rough after I scan the rough.

I find it helps me get a sense of how I should render a section -- or even if a section needs to be rendered at all. It also helps me think through what lines I should enhance or let go.

I ususally do them in greytones, but this was a pretty simple sketch so I jumped to colour.

Rich, this looks a lot like my partner Dan Panosian's, which is posted on his blog, here [link]

That being said, looks cool!;)

Thanks -

I did it from an initial doodle in one of my sketchbooks, which could have been from either photoreference, paused DVD or out of my head -- can't recall for certain - -sorry.
