Description This is a commission that I recieved. The subject is "Mac Dre", a Northern California rapper on the rise. He was shot in Kansas City while driving on the highway. Alot of people think he would have been a huge star if he hadn't been murdered. I knew nothing about the rapper when I first recieved the commission but when looking for reference pictures of him, I learned alot about his career and life. I am pretty happy with the way the drawing turned out. The customer said he wanted "mac dre" in small letters somewhere on the drawing so I put it on the bottom in white letters. Kind of an interesting drawing to do.

14"x17" Bristol Vellum
3B, 3B mechanical pencils
blending stumps, tissue, and q-tips for blending
approximately 10 hours

Looks awesome. I agree with others, that it does kind of look like he has four ifngers, but maybe it's how it was in the reference. Anyways, :arg:

Nice texture here, esp. on the left side of the shirt.
I always like the little details that make it so much more real.
I like the hair, and wow what a mouth, you can put a whole pie in there

Good job! (as usual)

It just seems to me you didn't put as much heart or personality into this piece, am I wrong ? - not that it isn't very well done, it just doesn't seem as personal as you work usually does... or maybe it's just me

henderson [2005-12-07 07:58:28 +0000 UTC]

Professional signature! Yes, I notice stuff like that, plenty of up and comers still sign korny and make their work look like it was done by a 10 year old by this dumb, bubbly signature. Shirt is pretty perfect. I'm still not liking the smooth look for skin, it might look 'good', but it never has a 'real' texture to it. Use a real pencil! and keep it real sharp with an electric pencil sharpener, don't blend at all, and see what you can come up with on skin tones, I think you'll be pleasantly suprised and pleased. I just see so much craftsmanship that could skip some learning levels really quick with some good tools.

Kinda ironic- I was just listening to Mac Dre when I clicked on this...

I'm glad someone can appreciate a good rapper who was overlooked by the mainstream crowd.
