I took a screenshot from The Clone Wars and put it into GIMP. From there I duplicated the base layer (following any initial cleanup for preparation) and colorized the top layer with the armor design. I also used that layer to add any facial features, such as the tattoo, or change the hair color. After that I put a mask over the top layer and used a black airbrush to color in the edges of the armor paint to create that wear and tear effect.

It's a rocky start at first, but enough practice and it becomes relatively easy! I've been doing this for around 3 years at this point, and my skills can only (and have since I made that image) improve!
