Lets keep coloring….Figure 1



Grabbed all my blue colored pencils…and started in on the pants.



Continued on with the arms.  That elbow area can get tricky…..fine line between muddy and shadow.



Totally misjudged the vein…had to bring it up a bit.



Started in on the pattern in the shirt….I’m really wishing it was a solid shirt.  Most likely will resort to “stripe-winging”….makes me dizzy just thinking about duplicating this.



Well….at least the pants look like jeans…..not exactly like the picture….Yes….these are more weathered and worn.  Keeping that creative license handy in case I get asked.

  1. This is amazing. Your shading is phenomenal! I'm particularly in awe of the muscle tone in the upper arm. How long does it take you to finish a sketch like this from beginning to end?

  2. Thanks Molly!! It all depends on how much detail I put in. I would say probably a week, working on it for 2-3 hrs a day. I am not that fast.
