“Walking…”, Update #10

March 9th, 2008 · No Comments

Almost there. The next update should be the finished drawing. The photo doesn’t quite do it justice – the darks are darker, and the jeans really don’t look quite so much like the jacket in terms of color.

“Walking…”, Update #9

March 8th, 2008 · No Comments

More than a little concerned over the color of the pants…a bit too close to the color of the jacket (which I’ve made more purple to deviate) for my liking…and I don’t recall for the life of me the technique I used for the jeans in “Jump!“…I’ll work it out.

This evening’s progress in a desaturated, washed out photo.  I swear, it’s really popping off the canvas here in my studio.

“Walking…”, Update #3 (really just a better photo)

March 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

The quality of the scan in the last post was really bugging me, so after working a bit longer on it I took a photo – even a photo in poor lighting is better than what that scanner is capable of producing.
