‘No Fear,’ Pen and ink and Sakura Microns on Bristol Board, 6″ x 9″

Here’s the pencil drawing I started with. You can also see some of my reference material for this image. I had a lot of fun researching tattoos and knew that my tattoo had to have flames and a skull…

Have a good weekend.

‘Super,’ pen and ink and photoshop. Another personal poster project for the band, Super Furry Animals.

This started off as a pen and ink drawing. However, I wasn’t at all happy with the original drawing so I coloured the pen and ink image in Photoshop. As soon as I started the drawing I knew it wasn’t going to turn out well…so of course it didn’t.

Here’s the original pen and ink drawing.
