Shell Holes And Observation Balloon, Champagne Sector

Lightly sketch the main shapes: the buildings, the hill, and the shell holes.

Establish the horizon line and the basic perspective of the buildings.

Block in the dark areas of the hill and sky with a diluted dark tone.

Paint the white walls of the buildings, leaving some areas darker to suggest shadows and damage.

Add texture to the roofs and ground using short, broken brushstrokes.

Define the details of the shell holes and the surrounding grass.

Add the observation balloon in the sky as a final detail.

Refine the details and adjust the values to create depth.
