Sketch o’the Week
May 26th, 2010 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week
I’m sort of taking this week off from the “Sketch o’the Week” after spending quite a bit more time than usual on that series of ink wash sketches over the last two plus months. This week’s sketch is actually the rough sketch for a small project. It’s a trading card that is part of a series being used in an ad campaign for a company. Once the campaign is launched I’ll post the finished art here, and tell you about the project and the rarefied company I am keeping in doing one of these cards… some of the artists they have doing art for this series are legends.

Looks great! When is your book going to launch?
One point for an awsome sketch, one point for it not being a Lost character.
I have read several books on drawing “comic book super-heroes”. How does one get an individual look, so that you don’t end up with the same body and just put a different head or face on it? Is it acceptable to make the muscles and bulges all look similar? (Or, did you stand in front of a mirror and draw yourself!!??)
