Tiger Tiger pt 2



 Well here are a couple new shots of my pal the Tiger.  As you can see I am still working on the underpainting stage. This first one is from a couple days ago. I am spending a little more time on this stage to build up the layers of shadow. This should pay off when I get to the oil stage.

The second picture below was taken earlier tonight. I am still working on the position of his paw. I have moved it a couple times. I think I am finally done moving it.  I like the sense of motion this has now. I've also feathered in some suggestion of grass and weeds. I think he is coming along pretty well.

Sketchbook 03.25.13: Disney / JLA mash up

A coworker asked me if I would do a sketch for a young man at her church who is autistic. He recently went through an operation and was having some difficulty. She was hoping to give him something to get his mind off the procedures he was going through. I asked what type of things he liked and she told me he was a huge Disney Fan and Donald Duck was his favorite character. So I started kicking ideas around in my head of what type of drawing to do. I pulled some old animation references for Donald's Facial expressions and remembered how angry He was and just how many funny situations that put him in. He was always yelling incoherently... Don't ask how but some how I pictured Donald in the Christian Bale Batman role. I guess it was his voice or something. One thing led to another and you have Donald "The Duck Night". I wanted to team him up and figured if Donald was Batman... then Mickey had to be Superman. Plus looking at all the old school Mickey reference just...

Sketchbook 4.21.2013 - Distance

I picked up a few of the new PrismaColor Brush tip markers I have to say that I'm extremely Happy. I've always sketched with pencil even when I'm planning out an idea for a painting. Then I have to figure out the colors. I did the above sketch all in marker. In much the same way I would have painted it. This one was done on a sketch card 3.5" x 2.5" so it will be a handy reference size. ©TCDART 2013 ** All fan art is copyright to the original creators of the characters.
