Warrior

This motorbird will be included (as a sort of homage or take-off artwork) to a friend's special limited oversize release (A3) of his graphic novel "RIA - Seed of Hope" . The design of the motorbird is based on the novel's cat-ish main character.

sir,
i draw cartoons, with a 4B pencil i draw the gesture first, but i have found many master artists (including you) do the PENCILING with a BLUE pencil. Could You tell me the reason plz?

Great ;)

A. Riabovitchev said...

Ha Ha!Great one!:O)

Florian Satzinger said...

ARI :) Cheers!

Leo, it's exactly like an analog layer system. I start with the blue pencil and then finish the line work with a regular one. Well, other artists use green or red pencils - it's totally up to your own colour taste :) I prefer blue.

Cheers Mimi! :)

Andrei! Thank you so much! How's going?

Hahaha, I think he may be slightly out of shape to handle that thing. And thanks for sharing that comic book, I'll look for it next time I go to the store !
