Draw - Ahhh! Brains (Bisto Parody) - Part 3

Finally getting round to coloring this one. It's been a long hard slog getting my arse in gear to do this one. Mainly due to my work in pencils coming along nicely and me not wanting to stop doing something that feels good. This will more than likely be one of the last digitally colored projects I do until later on in the year or early on next year.

Here is the sneak peak of how the coloring is coming along.

Juha Arvid Helminen - My Inspiration for WAR

So I have been searching to find something to spark my inspiration to continue on my FOUR HORSEMEN set. In doing so I came across the wonderful photography of Juha Arvid Helminen. I fell in love with this mans style and composition and decided I wanted to see if I could recreate, in part, the depth and feel of his style in pencil.

Here is the result:

Needless to say I have been inspired and my WAR will be worked on this weekend :)

PLEASE Check out Juhas' work.

DEATH - Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

So I have taken to creating a series of portrait pieces based on the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. I started out with the one I thought would cause most trouble and found it less of a challenge that first anticipated.

Drawn with 4H and 3B pencils.

I took some progress pictures with my Smart Phone and Scanned in the finished article later.

Here they are.

Update....of sorts.

Much has been happening in my life that I shall not bore you with, but I have picked up my pencils again and have drawn one or two things I think are worthy of showing off.

Here they are.

The first piece was part of a larger tattoo design I was doing for someone. I have since stopped working on that and decided I wanted to try a more shaded version of what was part of that design. It's my first real take on glass. I was pleased with the results of this doodle.

The second piece was a test of my endurance and I am really pleased I took my time and worked on it over 3 days. The depth I managed to achieve in some places by using only an HB pencil inspired me to purchase a range of H and B pencils. So once I get used to them I should be able to get a great deal more depth :)

Draw - Ahhh! Brains (Bisto Parody) - Part 2

As a follow up to my original post (found here) I thought it might be an idea to let you see a final mock up. This is the last draft before I set to getting the final ink and colouring done.

I may do just a normal black and white of this, but I am not too sure. I really want to stick by the original colour scheme, but I am getting to the stage that this has been a long process to find the inspiration to finish this project.

I'll keep you all posted.
