    Default Who's Next

    Hello all,

    I have not posted anything in ages. Something I hope to remedy soon. I have been working on things here and there when I get the chance.

    I tried to keep this very loose and only used layers to change shades. Seems I never do things the easy way.

    Every software program has it's place I guess but I find that if you really want to get down and dirty with very little hassel.... Xara is the way to do it!

    As always comments and suggestions always welcome.

    Brian

    That’s excellent. As you say; gives a loose, character packed image without descending into the photo real while remaining completely recognisable (I assume) as to who it’s meant to be.

    Very nice. Perhaps you should make this your entry for the Xara Xone Group Show?

    Wonderful piece of work Brian, you've captured the expression very well.

    Wonderful drawing and a nice reminder of the boy's childhood.

    Hi Brian,

    I'm getting senile, I thought I had already replied to this thread.

    Wonderful image. As Sven-Ingvar has already stated, this will be a great reminder of his childhood.
