6 hours in photoshop, using a photo reference and the hard round brush.

While painting digitally after a photo of a nude model isn't "the real" deal, or very original, I enjoyed working somewhat traditional. I didn't use any adjustment layers, effects, clipping masks or blending layers, just ye olde round brush. I didn't really time it, but my guess is that it took around 6 hours.
I quite like the outcome.

Oh and the ref was nicked from http://figuresfordrawing.tumblr.com/

Here's some process

Thugxedo

Ink lineart over a pencil sketch and with pencil shading; gangster style.

Signe offered me that I could decorate the first page of her new notebook with whatever I wanted, so I decided to draw one of my series of characters with apparently mismatched looks.
This one became the thugxedo. Ink lineart and mech pencil.

Oh and don't tell her what the left hand means...

Barrel Treehouse

Bringing your sketchbook to long briefings can prove fruitful.

This is kind of an oldie, from late summer 2012. But since my scanner was unavailible until december, this thing has been burning in my sketchbook to get added to the series of treehouses. Kind of extraordinarily for me, I did this without sketch, simply going straight into ink. It was quite the mental exercise, having to plan overlapping items and such in advance.
