A.D.R.I.A.N. sketch blog!

[A.D.R.I.A.N.]

Hey guys!
I thought I'd join in this section, since i generate much more in this category of art than others :P
Currently working on a book and I'm always kicking out sketches...
well, let's get it started.
Here's a new sketch of Methuselah, from Chronicles: Rise to Power

[A.D.R.I.A.N.]

hey! thanks nickguy. I will try to drop one a day... or week :P
Here's an old crow sketch for today's entry
http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q193/dapunisher_album/crowsketch.jpg

I'll have a "new" sketch tomorrow!

[A.D.R.I.A.N.]

I think I probably should organize this somewhat. Maybe do theme's for a while or something...
hmmmm, well, while I ponder here's a new sketch from today' idle hands session.

Dude, I Love this work! I'm really impressed man! By stupid chance, you wouldn't happen to have any pieces that I could practice colouring with, would you?

[A.D.R.I.A.N.]

Thanks, covie!
I think I have something I can pass on if you want to practice, shoot me your email.

Lookin' good A.D.R.I.A.N.! I especially like the angel piece. Do I see a lil' Ed McGuinness' influence in there?

[A.D.R.I.A.N.]

did this focusing on the tone and not any anatomy issues... I'm doing this to eventually get to colors...

Here's a 10 minute sketch in Manga studio with a very quick splash of tone with a large brush setting (ha!)
http://i136.photobucket.com/albums/q193/dapunisher_album/methcopy.jpg

Trying to get used to working with this to, i guess, have more control over the finished look of my art. I want to be able to eventually do all of my art digitally... maybe not

I don't know what's better. That we share the same first name or these sketches. Seriously though, I dig the style. Very easy on the eyes and gives the right amount of info.

[Mase]

Love that black Spidey. You captured him perfectly.

[Frito]

These are really nice. Big fan of the savage dragon sketch. :)

[Karim]

I like your style, it reminds me of Khoi Pham and Lenil Yu. I love their work.

Way more people need to be peeking in on this thread. It's late, so that's all I gotta say. Just thought I'd acknowledge the sound draftsmanship and the energy on display here. Some of my favourite stuff on the board!

thanks, I try to push myself at times to make stuff dynamic with varied results.

[A.D.R.I.A.N.]

a scrapped idea for a poster... not dynamic
but here it is, mistakes and all.
