Illustration: Gardien du temps_044

 


Back to ink work with a little grey tone for good measure. I am really liking the progress I have made with colour but black and white and ink lines in particular I think will always be my better stuff. I decided to keep the huge circular metal structure he is swinging on very simple and graphic looking so it's there but he stands out more. I like how the face came out on this, I don't usually think the faces of the acrobats I draw are strong points to the illustrations. Also, this is different guy from the last 3 I have drawn and that made me happy!

Wow, some really nice texture on the pants and shoes here! Great contrast with the very simple, graphic background. Nice pose, too!

Thanks mike! This is one of many cases where the not good photo can be used to make a nice drawing, I think. I often say some of the best photos make terible drawings and vice versa.
