So I was continuing my work on my logo that Matt had giving some great help with, when I decided to add the top part of the chest to the logo. As I was drawing that I  realize it didn't look very good compared to the head... In Fact, I think it made the head look smaller than it should. So I decided I need to do some practice. Taking my scan of the trace I did of my brother Joe's Original picture of his Kinetic Warrior guyver, I popped it in clip studio paint and was messing around and this was the result. https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/56f3f56d-2f58-44ba-a8a0-d9628179743b/dfjymtq-c8d26f10-3085-45c1-b8b6-19d4649b8f68.jpg/v1/fill/w_1024,h_1448,q_75,strp/kinetic_warrior_redesign_by_ultimatewkar_dfjymtq-fullview.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9MTQ0OCIsInBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcLzU2ZjNmNTZkLTJmNTgtNDRiYS1hOGEwLWQ5NjI4MTc5NzQzYlwvZGZqeW10cS1jOGQyNmYxMC0zMDg1LTQ1YzEtYjhiNi0xOWQ0NjQ5YjhmNjguanBnIiwid2lkdGgiOiI8PTEwMjQifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6aW1hZ2Uub3BlcmF0aW9ucyJdfQ.bLIPQZtnJkX5a6ZodAeqSvqpDyob3_BsJCbB8ZI6a64

It is something of a minor redesign, but since Joe had used the Old Matrix Enhanced Warrior Guyver image when he drawed the original Kinetic Warrior I figure this was a good way to refamiliarize myself with guyver. I even made a caparison so you can see the differences. https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/56f3f56d-2f58-44ba-a8a0-d9628179743b/dfjyn2n-b752eb4b-560e-47a4-b148-574fe7e6a441.jpg/v1/fill/w_1024,h_727,q_75,strp/kinetic_warrior_comparison_by_ultimatewkar_dfjyn2n-fullview.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7ImhlaWdodCI6Ijw9NzI3IiwicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvNTZmM2Y1NmQtMmY1OC00NGJhLWE4YTAtZDk2MjgxNzk3NDNiXC9kZmp5bjJuLWI3NTJlYjRiLTU2MGUtNDdhNC1iMTQ4LTU3NGZlN2U2YTQ0MS5qcGciLCJ3aWR0aCI6Ijw9MTAyNCJ9XV0sImF1ZCI6WyJ1cm46c2VydmljZTppbWFnZS5vcGVyYXRpb25zIl19.bi432hZ8dKvkHdTud3Hy5qVYkZ8UMnmMdFkSpqaZkDU.

As you stated, that it was just a trace job of the old work, I won't comment on the proportions ect... As that was not the point of the piece.

However, the second image certainly brings me back to the days of drawing in a sketchbook and scanning things... All the smudging of pencil lead and the yellowing of the paper... Ahhh such memories from over 20 years ago... I rarely ever draw non digitally now.

Same Here, its hard to go back once you start and now that I've found artist like Marc Brunet who have created pen tools for clip that accurately replicate the texture of traditional pencils with his MB Legendary Line art pen (which is what I used for this) I don't really feel the need to either even for rough drafting line art. I'll probable do a couple more of these to get myself refamiliarize with guyver's body proportions before heading back to my logo, deleted the upper torso line art that I made and redraw it.
