ARF Trooper sketch card 501st Legion CVI 2012

Card #1: ARF Trooper

Stands for Advanced Recon Force Trooper.
(Clone Wars)

Here's a progress shot:


So why draw this particular trooper? There's quite a few ARF Troopers out there...but the digitized camouflage is what caught my attention. This digital pattern has been used since the late 70's and still used in today's military forces.

I don't own an ARF Trooper figure and the actual character does not make much of an appearance on television either.... so finding reference was a bit challenging.

I'm really enjoying the Clone Wars series and already looking forward to next season!

This sketchcard will be made available during this year's Star Wars Celebration VI (Florida).
