For the two heads on the bottom, I was looking at an old photograph. I didn't try to do portraits but they came out pretty close to the pictures anyway. I avoided their hats, not out of fear (for they were very fancy hats) but because I had to leave for work.
...Then I did the top two, no reference. Freestyle. The bottom faces look more "real," I suppose, but that's only because they were.
I followed your link from Cheek's blog (gotcheeks.blogspot.com).

I just wanted to say I really dig your art. Especially this drawing. What material did you use for this?
Say, Essince,
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the works. These heads were drawn on a sheet of plain old typing paper. I inked the top two with a quill pen and left the bottom just pencil.
Then into photoshop for color and texture, trying to dress up the presentation a bit.
