The soldier in the trees

As a part of our illustration module we were asked to produce two illustrative piece's based on two short stories, i've produced the design for the first, titled "the soldier in the trees".

Below is the original sketch.

I then went on to line the image digitally, using adobe illustrator. 

After doing this i decided to add some colour, although the brief states it was to be in black and white, i would then change it to black and white.

Below is the final version.
