Artist's Comments
Pharrell Williams from the Neptunes/N.E.R.D. When I'm in a lull, it helps to draw some eyecandy. I really like the way this turned out. Especially the face, the strokes there free and loose, without being unrefined . It's so hard for me to get that to happen, I think I usually try too hard.
Drawn in Opencanvas with some retouches to his arm and hand in Painter7. The photo I looked at for reference is from the cover of the June issue of the The Source magazine. I'm not too fond of how the hand turned out, but I couldn't fix it without it looking overworked. And again, the there is some pixelation in the background. I don't know why that keeps happening. *edit* I uploaded the OC eventfile, at ~doctajules's request. That's what's inside the .zip. If you want to watch it, you'll need the OpenCanvas program. If you click on the small view, it will take you to the download. The magnifying glass will take you to the full resolution image.  |
