Testing Shapes: Mount; Anatomy of My Rough Process

Update: I already posted these pieces over at The Art Center, but since this is my journal, I wanted to put it up here, too. It's a sort of anatomy of my rough process. The final rough sketch is a composite of the pencil and the digital drawing. The clean-up will follow soonish... by the by, you can buy the original pencil sketch through an auction for the Christchurch victims. The starting bid is as low as $10,-! Plus, the original piece comes with signed prints of the coloured and cleaned-up illustration (Motorbirds Illustrated cover and work-in-progress sheet).

Update2: AUCTION CLOSED, THE SKETCH WAS SOLD!

Quick, rough shape study...

    Cheers Tony! The top one is my front-runner, too :) BTW, mostly I work directly on the Cintiq/Intuos but I regularly return to paper and pencil for drawing/sketching ideas.
