Ethan Maskelyne referance's

The first scene to start for this project is where Ethan Maskelyne fights a dragon on his boat at sea.
So i chose to start Maskelyne first and began gathering all the information i found in the book. Such as: Tall, lean man with a long cadaverous face. Brine spots stippled the back of his hands. green eyes shown vigour and intelligence. Maskelyne is described wearing more posher clothing earlier in the book but for the boat scene he is wearing mostly whaleskin clothes and cloaks with goggles to protect himself from the brine waters. So i may decide to design both clothing although he will be wearing the whaleskin clothes for final scene painting. Following the descriptions i have gathered as many reference images as i could find for literally anything that could influence and help design the character from clothing ideas, poses, face ideas and even images to help design the whaleskin clothing. Next i will start the process to design the character using thumbnail images and sketches.
