Final Ehyptian skeleton warrior concept, only took me 12 hoirs with color and inks- still too long, but better than the forty spent on my barbarian commission. I finished the portrait painting on this page or page three in like 45 hours, which is just for reference.
Included reference images, didn't reference the white skirt part or the red cloth.

1. Use the biggest brush possible for a given passage.
2. Paint large shapes first, followed by small shapes.
3. Save your tonal and chromatic accents until the last.
4. Try to soften any edge that doesn’t need to be sharp.
5. Take time to get the center of interest right.
Or, the briefer version: (B.L.A.S.T.)
Big brushes.
Large to small.
Accents last.
Soften edges.
Take your time.
