Artist's Comments

For illustration class.

I spent a lot longer on this then I intended because I wanted to prove my prof wrong. He's been encouraging the class to trace images of our chosen celebrity, politician, etc.

Suffice to say, my prof is a twat.

Looks sweet! I love the way you did his face and the guitar.
The arm strumming and it's sleeve don't line up though, the sleeve is going back but the arm goes straight down. I salute you for not tracing though. That completely ruins any learning that could have been done D:

Drawing too much since 1994

I knew it was Dimitri before I even noticed his name! I love this guy, I haven't gotten the chance to watch his new show yet though. :[

Woah you finished! Awesome!
He looks great. The cactus is wicked sweet.

...and christ, i can't believe he's actually encouraging tracing.
:iconplease-insert-coins:
Yeah, I noticed that problem just as I did the inks. I would normally redo this, but I'm out of time.
:iconplease-insert-coins:
Oh my god you should. It's one of the finest moments of television history.

He was telling me to trace the guitar because it was easy.

And didn't he tell you to trace an eagle?
:iconzankara:
Yeah, come to think of it, he did...
God dammit that class! It's ILLUSTRATION, not How To Trace And Get Away With It 101.

Ooh, I'm glad you posted this, didn't get to look at it too well in class. I really like your inking style and fuck guitars. I HATE drawing them. Their curves make no sense

As far as Henterly goes, he surprises me constantly with how inconsistent he is. One minute he'll be denouncing how easy it is for illustrators to cheat and just copy things directly, how much easier computers make it. And then he'll be advising us to take shortcuts and trace things

His principles are either very flexible or downright illogical
