You have 15 minutes to draw Johnny Alpha
« on: 19 October, 2009, 12:39:25 PM »
I thought it was time to give another 2000AD heavyweight his 15 minutes of fame.
Same basic idea as here, but feel free to draw Wulf, Gronk, Middenface, Durham or any Strontium Dog character - no ref and 15 minutes are the only rules!

Not 100% happy with this, but it should get the ball rolling!

Boom:



And:



Pencilled on my lunch break today, inked at home, then photographed with the camera (because they're in a hardback sketchbook). Hence they might look a bit distorted!

Jim and Grimm - you rock!
and Jim, also, there's the makings of a fine entry into the monthly art comp there I reckon!

I had another go...

The arm with the hand on the hip is all wrong... I hadn't really drawn Durham before and I really enjoyed doing this despite it's faults.

Way to hit the ground running guys!!
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

Here's my first attempt using sketchbook pro and wacom volito, used the 2b pencil tool, blur and chisel tipped marker. Struggling with the digital art, too many years of using pencil and paper, definately must practice more.
