Artifix Noctem 10(? 11?)
This week's Artifix Noctem had no true theme, so I had a hard time finding something to draw. I spent the first 15-20 minutes browsing the web for pictures of Frank Reynolds, from "Always Sunny in Philadelphia", and came across this guy's work: Hawk Krall
The reference image I used was this:
and my poor attempt at a recreation is here:
For a two-hour sketch / drawing session, I feel pretty proud of that work! Also, considering my reference image was on a blackberry, it was pretty difficult to translate it to paper, but I think I did pretty good. If I were a real artist, and intended to sell the work or something, I wouldn't have so blatantly tried to copy that work, but man, the original artwork by Hawk Krall is beautiful. I hope he offers prints of that piece sometime, because I would totally buy one.
