OT- My latest drawing

602Sqn_Puff · 11-09-05, 01:13 PM

Ok this took me about 100 hrs over two months. The client wanted a montage of photos turned into a drawing. Her Dad was a co-pilot on B24's with the 721st Sqn of the 450th BG flying with the 15th Air Force.
Her Dad is the guy on the left standing of the crew drawing.

Its a pencil drawing using a 2B and 4B lead....anyway I very happy with the outcome.

Please feel free to comment on anything you see right or wrong with it

Fantastic drawing, I used to draw a lot when I was younger so I appreciate that very much, really great work.

Do you have Flight sim, if you do I bet you have Wings of Power?

Just curious, how much do you charge for a drawing like that?

602Sqn_Puff · 11-09-05, 03:29 PM

That one was a one off at Â£100 , price for the 100 odd hrs I put in would be round about Â£200 - Â£300 bracket.

I gotta say that is one helluva drawing, you've captured the mood perfectly

Great work but I have to ask:

Why copy photographs (pictures) photorealistically ? What's the point ?

And that money is aweful for so many hours of high-concentration artwork.

Don't know what to say.... Impressive......

Outstanding work, but I agree with Sixpack, that's an incredible amount of work for that amount of $$$.
