It's pretty neat to see unfinished work like this.

Andy Borehol said...

Looking good! Are you using a nib to do the outlining?

Nicholas Di Genova said...

Thanks Olivia... I should be done the whole drawing around may 3rd, I'll post it when i'm done... I'm following your new blog now too... The apartment i finally all set up, we've had friend over with no complaints from the neighbour so I guess the soundproofing worked...

Andy, yup, I'm using a nib to do the whole thing, for the thicker outlines I use a Globe or an old Eagle nib, for the details I use a Hunt 102 or 104...

Olivia said...

that sounds great! Well i'm glad everything worked out well for you. I wish i had money to move out but that won't happen until 10 millions years later!

woah didnt realize you used pencil at all! this is awesome. is that darker part on the middle of the dude ink...or like darkened pencil...? so sweet!

I like paints said...

very nice!!

Nicholas Di Genova said...

I usually sketch out the entire thing once roughly in pencil, to get everything in the right spot... Then I sketch out each area in more detail, right before inking that area… The darker part in the middle of the guy is ink…

I'm just a few minutes away from finishing this guy, maybe I will post him today...
