So John asked me to draw/compose something like a cover of some sorts. He suggested to draw Penance aka Speedball aka Robbie Baldwin aka School Bomber. So the original concept should be that he’s standing infront of his costume (which will be the background). This was my initial sketch which I just inked because I want to try something out when inking it.
What I don’t like about this is fucked up face, which I worsened by adding a lot of unnecessary lines and shadow. While working on this one, I realized a few things:
- I’m weak on portraying human faces, especially when expressing emotion
- It’s hard to “create” contoured lines using markers, or that I don’t know how to do it.
- Rushing things will fuck things up. (Note to self: REMEMBER THIS!)
- Do not let an empty area screw with your head. It’s empty for a reason.
Also, I have a sore throat for 2 days now.
