Finished.

this was my first drawing of the idea

looks like shit

this was my redraw with color I hate backgrounds and got super lazy with it but my artist will get the gist of it and I used a pen i hadnt used before and the bitch bled when i started doing color

haha it was supposed to be defensive i was just saying these things were thought out beforehand. I’m excited to add color to it

nah buttwheat hes going to be underwater once I add color. and Clay I agree I have a ways to go but I’m going to MIAD for Illustration the next 4 years so that should help. and I already work in watercolors all the time I’ll upload some of my other work tomorrow thank you for your input. I do draw every day as it is but I need to find time to draw more. I’m thinking after college I’ll try for an apprenticeship but what would be some specific things to do to steady my hand or just improve my work in general?

heres the improved linework

the weirdness is the best part!

i decided to wait on the chest simply because after 4 years of art school i’m going to be able to come up with a much stronger idea. my chest is going to be my graduation present. and I love him and he does look stoned but hes just relaxing and enjoying the day. I’m excited for color

Just finished a quick sketch of what I’m thinking for my second tattoo

this would go on the front of my right bicep right above the ditch
