Ok time for one more. This time Han Solo and Chewie. Wanted to do a more real human kinda thing so decided that since Han is essentially a pirate, Chewie could be his trusted first mate. In the traditional pirate history many Captains had black non-slave first mate. In order to keep Chewie looking almost alien he needed to stick out as a foreigner in London at the end of the century, thus I gave him an almost primitive look to counter the Victorian style.
The image took a lot longer than what I wanted, but nonetheless I had a lot of fun with it. Sketched it out directly on the computer, then I did the background very simple in 3d and painted over the whole thing in Photoshop.
