Photoshop sketch + printed and inked version (as posted on instagram) of a drawing based on this Lou O’Bedlam shot. Drawn last October. For whatever reason I had never posted this before.

Anyway, I should really draw more often.

I also went through a phase last year where I printed out Photoshop drawings and touched them up with ink. Makes no sense, right? Yeah, I’m just super logical like that. Original drawing done in February and touch-ups in, September? Probably? Maybe one day I’ll even get around to colouring it.

Posted earlier - and the reference of course is by the great Lou O’Bedlam.

Incidentally, it was that exact photo that Michelle and I ogled and declared we would one day take pictures of that level of awesome right before we went out and took this picture. True story.

Here’s another one I printed then inked this weekend. It really is very calming.

Work in progress - lines, Photoshop CS3, one hour.

Another O’Bedlam reference shot which I don’t quite think I’ve done justice but hey, a) not trying to copy it and b) not done!

This feels kind of Erik Jones (more or less NSFW) at the moment but I’m sort of going for a Jen Mundy look overall. We’ll see how it goes. (Click links! See art that’s better than mine!)

Done yesterday/today in Photoshop CS3, about four-ish hours.

Reference for this is one of my very favourite shots (polaroid, to boot!) of the lovely Caitlin by the always awesome Lou O’Bedlam.

Also, still a work in progress, I’ll probs add colours later. But yeah, pretty pleased with it for the moment

Happy birthday to Lou O’Bedlam, one of my favourite tumblrites!

(This drawing is old. The extremely loose colouring is new though!)
