Buzz Aldrin, Apollo 11

Sketch from out on the patio yesterday. Do I really need to provide the reference? :-)

In my opinion, the greatest technical achievement of mankind.

Let me know what you think (about the drawing, I mean).

no you don't need to post your reference but maybe put an mtv flag in his hand. Looks great however he seems just the slightest bit squished from side to side.and his feet a little stubby but great rendering.

Someone else pointed out to me he might be a bit skewed due to my left-handed-ness.

As for the stubby feet, check out the moon boots.

I was thinking if I looked hard enough, Imight see dr. manhattan in the reflection of his visor

anyways, broadening the shoulders would have been nice, artistic liscense say's it's ok

also, his chest plate thingy mabobber seems a bit round compared to it's square friend in the ref. photo. But all in all I think you did well, especially in the rendering.

Thanks for the feedback, Ninja. I tried to measure the shoulders against the backpack -- but overall, I can see now that he might be a bit thinner than the reference.
