Artist's Comments

day 2 of practicing drawing with a reference pic.
i picked another ugly (no offense to iggy pop fans out there :-) -- i'm a huge stooges fan actually) dude because mistakes are less noticeable, and i should probably learn muscle anatomy at some point. i'll do someone more photogenic next, promise!

<edit>
PERSON I FIND INTERESTING #2: IGGY POP
notorious for his performance antics, the one-time singer of the stooges has shown amazing longevity in a field where the average half-life of fame is a couple months. pioneering the stage-dive? check. constantly shirtless (even at the ripe old age of 60)? check. and what's more rock and roll than rolling around in broken glass onstage? the stooges' "fun house" album is a must-listen, but more recently i've been in awe of his collaboration with fatboy slim -- see him in puppet format at [link]

Hey, Iggy Pop isn't ugly, he's badass!

yeah, he's a total badass (that's why i drew him...)
maybe he's not so much "ugly" but rather "terrifying", haha
:iconwen-m:
good stuff man =d

thanks! i think my referencing ability far exceeds my freehand drawing ability still, but hopefully this practice will help me close the gap.

Everyone respects the Iggy.

Your growth rate is making me regret not putting more time into working in PS with photo reference...

...good work Mike!

thanks! i'm pretty much still just a glorified photocopier at this point, but i'm starting to notice a lot of detail that i can eventually incorporate into my freehand works... must... keep... practicing!
