OK, so i went back to my drawing roots, and have come up with a gritty, dark undertaker/grim reaper/henchman type character. yes, he does borrow traits from Mark Callaway, and i also drew inspiration from Motorhead front man Lemmy. I've decided, as this is only a 1 minute clip, i will do all i can to keep the character in the dark for as long as possible, hence the heavily shadowed piece below.
the first picture was a group of rudimentary shapes, drawn first with different shades of blue, getting darker as detail increases.
the second, is a strong silhouette, i thought I'd show that i can accomplish this feat.
the third is a progression of that above, and the final piece is just that.
head shot and side view coming next.




edit: yes i'm fully aware he has no pronounced feet so to speak. I just decided not to draw them, as they were ruining my ''wormseye'' perspective.
This is a strong and evocative drawing, Elly - looking forward to seeing him refined further...
