Description
This is not my character, but he certainly was fun to draw. This is 's Tabakoman, who I think is really freaking awesome. Hopefully I did not bastardize his character. He's like wolverine, only with cigarettes! Take that!Used thin sharpie for inking, thick one for coloring in.
This is a thanks to Scrotumnose for his awesome drawing he gave me once that I still love to death and the fact that his art is really freaking rockin'. I apologize profusely dude, that it took me so long.
Might color it sometime, though right now I have no tablet so it'll have to be sometime this week. Hope you enjoy it!
Tabakoman (c) IE not mine at all, folks

Why is it that you have such an awesome style? really. its so fucking rad. I love his fingers to death and the angle of his face <3 and how the hell do you have the patience for the crosshatching D: plz tell me its a texture/filter...

Wow, I love how you used the hatching to shade! Definitely gives this image the quirky-but-cool look that seems to suit the character. <3

Love it--I know I must have said it before, but you have a distinctive line and the slight angular look you give it is really emotive. I've been practicing that cross-hatching technique you use, but mine comes out funky--and NOT cool like yours.
One question, though: how do you keep from getting a headache while working with Sharpie so much? I can't wield one of those for a whole minute without capping it, blowing my nose, and shaking my head!
Or perhaps Sharpie-high is the secret of your success, bwah ha ha!

Ha! It probably is! I've dealt with sharpies over long periods of time since I was in grade school. My only idea is that I've gotten *used* to the smell. Isn't that horrid? In any case, there are some sharpies that smell worse than others, and those I trash based on smell alone. They've gotten better though, I think, about the fumes.
But thank you! Good luck with the crosshatching - I can understand. It took me a while to not have it bumble up together too. You'll get it! And I'm sure it already looks better than you give it credit for.

wonderful!
how do you manage to ink with sharpies?
the thin ones dry out for me a week after i buy them...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Really? I bye sharpies soley cos of the extensive use I can get out of them for so cheap. I don't know how I ink with them. Quickly - I never lit the nip stay on the sheet too long, 'for they bleed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
mine just dry out after several times... and it sucks.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hm! That does. I guess that's why they're really cheap. I buy them in massive bulk, typically, since I lose them faster than they dry out.

One of the most awesome parts about your art is that nifty way of shading. I might give it a try sometime. He has such a cool expression on his face too! A really nice grin!
