Been working on this for the last couple of days. For those who don’t know who he is, he is the late front man from the Heavy Metal group Motorhead. This will be for my son Anthony (who is 33 in July) and Motorhead is his favourite band. It will make a nice birthday present if I make a good job of it :wink2:
I am using Staedtler Mars Lumograph pencils on Fabriano Artistic Hot Pressed paper. A3 in size.

May 18, 2018 at 1:17 pm #624605Hi , this is a commision I finished recently for a friend of mine. His wife asked me if I would do a portrait of WILLOW, their Siberian Husky. She wanted to surprise him with it as a present for his 60th birthday. He was over the Moon with it.
I used Staedtler Mars Lumograph pencils on Smooth Bristol Board. A3 in size.

July 29, 2018 at 6:34 am #624606Hi Jan, sorry for the late reply. I prefer Bristol Board for Graphite pencil but I do like experimenting with different papers and different mediums. As artists, I don’t think we ever stop learning.
