Mech Knight


I have been tinkering for this one over a good few lunchtimes. Props to John mad dog McCoy who showed me a few magic tricks a month or so a go. That boy has some mad skills indeed!

Frankii Wilde Pin Up

I have been working on this one for a little while and am calling it done. Had an absolute blast with it.
Thanks to Frankii Wilde (the loverly model) and Luna Rain (the marvelous photographer who allowed me to kindly use her images as reference).
I am pleased with the overall pop on this one and the energy I have achieved. Good fun.

'Delicious Burlesque' event

Hello blogosphere!
I attended the Delicious Burlesque event in Derby on Saturday.
The talented Charlotte Thomson very kindly let me come and draw on the Dr Sketchy stand.
We had a brilliant day drawing the glamorous burlsque-ers. We did a good few drawings but I only occaisionally remembered to take a photo! Stupid Jake. Here are a few of the 10 minute portraits along with their respective sitters.
It was tough to do but it was a real buzz. I will be doing more stuff like this in the future hopefully.
Edit: my drawings are the left ones on the 1st and 3rd photos and the one on the second photo. The other 2 are by Charlotte. It was great fun working with someone who has such a different style from me.

Pinnup of Aisling Grace Flaherty

Hi everyone,
I have finished my first pinnup painting. I was very kindly provided reference photography from the talented Miss Rain. You can see her brilliant work here. She also does the photogpahy at the Dr Sketchy Nottingham events which is what got me into the whole pinnup idea to begin with!
The lovely model was Aisling Grace Flaherty.

It is oil on primed MDF and is about 2x1ft in size.
I plan on doing a series of these and really loved doing this one. There are a few things that I do like about it but it is a decent begining. I am already well under way with my next one.
Enjoy!!
Jake
