The reference photo was a little on the low-resolution side, so I had my work cut out in defining his features to achieve a likeness but luckily, the vibrant colours and the 'story' of the image, gave me plenty to work with in terms of character.

I then went on to layer up on the rich vibrant primary colours in the clothing with high-grade oil-based pencils to make those primary colours pop against the neutral tones on the background.
