Captain American PT. 1
The Drawergeek.com character this week is Captain America, which is one of my favorite characters so I had to do something! I don't have any time this week but I was in a meeting and did the rough "scribbles" version with a ball point pen. You will notice I had the arm with the shield originally going into the body. Bad silhouette, so I moved it off to the left and cleared the knee it was covering. The next drawing is a blue, tighter sketch of the scribble. It's a little light but the idea is that I want to color this by hand with markers and colored pencils probably. If I get the chance tonightish, I'll color it and post that. I leave town for a biz trip on Thurs. morning so I really don't have much time to finish this. If all goes wrong, hopefully, I'll at least ink the blue line version. Here's hoping....
Great Capt! Love seeing/reading the thought process....
ReplyDeleteGreat lookin' sketch as always Tom! I think the blue line turned out great and,like you said, reads much better in silhouette. Here's hoping you have time to finish it, and if not, have a safe business trip man!
ReplyDeletecoool drawings!! strong action pose! :)
ReplyDeleteJolly good works you have here, Mister!

I'm attracted to Caps legs in this piece. Call me crazy (or gay) but I love a good quad. Nicey nice Tom!
ReplyDeleteNice cap.. I like the posing of the blue line better.. but.. there's somethign abotu the face in your initial rough that I really like.. it's a tad more intense and focued..
