Could have used her the past 2 weeks. I've been redecorating the house. Though much work wouldn't get done. LOL

I await your finished masterpiece, matey.

Could use her help myself - totally failed to inherit my fathers handyman gene. Thanks for the fave and checking it out, though I'm not sure it'll be a masterpiece when its done - you're setting the bar pretty high for me!

Not always, but in this case I did an initial rough sketch and then took a photo of my friend, the beautiful and based the finished drawing somewhat on her.

Your work is always incomparable.

I especially love her right forearm and elbow, and the back of her knees.



Well done mi amigo.

Thanks my friend! Interestingly enough, I feel I haven't painted enough back of knees, and have a hankering to paint some more. I am a strange and different kind of guy, I know!

TheBandito In reply to Loopydave [2009-08-30 19:52:49 +0000 UTC]

LMAO.

Nah. That's one of the best things about figurative work...wanting to paint a certain part of the anatomy. I dig it.

Awesome work, again.

Cheers,

Wow - marvelous work already! I can't imagine what you could do that would improve it. (You mentioned skin tones a few comments back, but they look fine to me.)

Loopydave In reply to DavidCMatthews [2009-08-29 08:49:30 +0000 UTC]

There are few tweaks I want to do, but I think I'll leave the pencils still showing in place - kind of happy with the result and got so many other pieces I need to work on! Thanks for checking it out and leaving a comment btw - appreciated!

I love this one! The drawing and rendering are great as usual, but I also love the concept - seeing the underdrawing "behind" the rendering.

Thanks man! Plan to put a bit more 'construction plan' linework behind it for the finished piece.

I once was having a new Studio built back in 1994, and the builder had a female name (kinda like John Wayne had a female name "Marion") a n y w a y s - long story short, I did this during that time [link]

your piece reminded me of it - if ya don't mind me sending it your way

other than that - short shorts & calves an artist can't go wrong in getting that guy (testosterone engorged) attention going on

Loopydave In reply to theartyst [2009-08-29 03:01:02 +0000 UTC]

thanks mate, he never knew why I drew a female construction worker in the 1st place

Loopydave In reply to MarioChavez [2009-08-29 03:03:24 +0000 UTC]

! Thanks. This IS pretty much the pencils though - quickly colourized in photoshop with just a dab of 'aint' on top - pencils on this one were really quite tight.

MarioChavez In reply to Loopydave [2009-08-29 18:04:30 +0000 UTC]

hmmm...maybe thats why i like this piece so much. really warm tones, grainy shadows, soft highlights. definitely my favorite piece. a poster would look nice up on my studio wall
