Here is Scarecrow in his civilian attire.
These are very rough concept sketches only, so don't mind the bad proportions and fuzzy detail here & there. Most importantly, his face doesn't really represent a Jango clone yet - I doodled the first image while at work and had no immediate reference material for the face. For now I am just trying to nail down the look of his outfit & hairstyle. Weapons will also be better detailed in a final drawing.
I hope its obvious enough, I have drawn the thin-suit draped around his neck. I don't think it would be too large or baggy since it would be a tight fit to his head when pulled on. I made his undershirt kind of in the style of a padawan wrap, I may change that... I've also added knee-pad armour, I think he'd appreciate it doing the work he does [he may be kneeling down planting bombs in his civvies sometimes, not always when armoured up?]. And I hope the hairstyle works - I thought that since he is a clone, he'd be using some of that long hair to try and hide his features a bit, but I like the look of a loose top-drawn ponytail. And a bit of facial hair growth, too.
Because the character has special training in demolitions & equipment maintenance, I thought it appropriate for him to have multiple storage for tools & little parts etc, thus the backpack and clip on pouch belt. I am an Industrial Maintenance Electrician myself, and I always have a variety of tools stuffed in pockets while at work in addition to my tool pouch.
Tetsuoh, do you have something specific in mind for the Scythe symbol? I was thinking of incorporating it on the shoulder lapels of the jacket. I think I will be doing a second drawing of him in armor too, I need some ideas for the symbol on it.
Feb 8th/2011 - added another rough concept sketch, this time for his composite armour suit.
Feb 9th/2011 - added final pencil drawing for Scarecrow in his Composite armour.
Feb 24th/2011 - added final marker rendering.
Mar 15th/2011 - deleted the last post [bad proportions!] and added a greyscale final marker version with his head fixed [I hope].
April 4th/2011 - added base color render.
April 9th 2012 - rendered hair in blonde, as he was meant to be.
This is looking very interesting! Can't wait to see what you do with it!!
Wow. Oh my- just - wow. Holy crap, man.

Wow, looking good! It kind of reminds me of those great concept sketches from original trilogy! :)
Very Very Nice!
Ya know I wondered if anyone would consider taking your standard ex-clone trooper sketch.
I'm really glad you did.
Thanks much grendel.

Most of your thoughts on the subject were spot on, ie he has a goatee to help hide his face.
he usually has belt pouches and a side pouch (armored) for his explosive charges.
The symbol is the traditional grim reaper scythe with the blade forming a circle edge symbol and a curved handle. The symbol actually has wording forming the rest of the circle but that would probably be hard to draw. The position you have for in the armor picture is spot on.

Those of you not quite so "Geek" As me, It says "And Lo, Shall My Enemies Fall Before Me."
Its the vow he took to avenge his brothers after the armorsmith messed it up during the paint job...
Hey Gren.. I'm not an artist at all.. but his stomache area seems way smaller than it should be, compared to his chest and waist. Just a thought.
Love the picture though.
! ! ! ! !
Lookin' good Bud. My wife said the same thing as Xan did about the waist when I showed her the progress the other day. Good job on the recovery!
I don't think you are over-doing the progress pics. Whatever keeps you motivated. For me, I find posting progress pics actually saps my will to complete the task...so I generally don't do it, but it seems to be keeping you on track.
If I could say, I really think the neck is a little too long. Other then that I think this is coming along VERY well.

Lookin good, man!!
Looking very nice - sorry I don't comment often - I have internet trouble atm so getting on to check up on things is a bit hard.
I just hope the coloring doesn't take away from the drawing.. it looks great man.
I think it's the placement of the head. Visually looking at the left shoulder all the way to the base of the skull, a line we can easily follow, I think it just looks too long. If the head were physically pulled back towards the center/left-side-of-body I think it would fix up the perception.

Looks MUCH better.

I notice it's signed...does that mean it's complete? Or is this going to be a colour?
NICE work! I'll say the colours are far exceeding what I expected after all that marker rendering! COOLNESS!
The Badge is fine as is unless you want to make the background a slightly lighter shade of green than the armor shell.
I gotta say - I love it. And I cannot thank you enough for all the hard work.
Its amazing to show someone your work and get to say - "Meet the Scarecrow. Btw - expect explosions."
Let me just say that you are in no way a jerk! However long it takes you're still doing something totally off your own back for someone else, and there's nothing jerky or dorky about that. Not to mention that a piece with THIS much insane attention to detail is worth waiting a year for.
Very nicely done. I like how he grew his hair out and colored it to change his "clone" appearance, I like your finished piece very much. =D
I have always admired how meticulous you are when it comes to a project.
