Post a Drawing Every Day- Day 20- Riot Police Officer and Dog Cartoon Illustration

It's been 20 days since I have participated in this group...

Cartoon Illustration

...and this was the best I can come up with! Original based off a loose pencil squiggle, this imaginative drawing depicts an angry riot police officer, with an angry dog. Why are they both angry? I've no idea!

When I was recommended to focus on pencil drawings, I didn't think I would be going back to colour pencils- I stumbled on two water colour pencil whilst trying to find some other pencils on my desk. And now my drawings looks like I have no concept of colouring with pencils, which seems a far cry from the digital colourings of my inked work. As this was from imagination, I had problems with drawing that dog- not really an animal person, I suppose- as I wasn't sure how that mutt was going to look like. At least I like the expression on the dog's face, even if the face looks a bit too flat for my liking. The riot police officer went okay, even thou I had no idea on how to depict his body armour.

Overall, I hopefully will be able to improve my pencilling skills, from this primitive state, in future works.

Post a Drawing Every Day- Day 7- Textured Background for Roy Scheider Piece

Textured Background

I had time today to to do this work-in-progress of the background for this piece. I'm glad at how the water texture turned out for the water tank area. I'm not sure whether the dome top needed that glass texture, which highlights the abstract background for that area. The next appropriate action might be to actually drawing the 'dolphin' creature in the tank, rather then going for the 'cheap' approach of showing what's out of the water.
