Dunbar's Insomnia Marine

[Dunbar]

I couldn't sleep last night, so I started drawing things. Among the pile of crap was this sketch of Doomguy.

I'm gonna redraw it. The new one won't have the suck factor that this one has.

Looking good.. you always draw that small and press so hard on your pencils?. try to sketch lightly first with a hb pencil to get the basic sillouette and then fill in the sillouette and after thats finished press harder on your pencil. I would suggest a h2 pencil. stays sharp longer and gives a nice clean line. and try to draw a line in one stroke.

I have a good exercize tutorial somewhere for helping to achive a nice clean stroke instead of shacky lines.. i'l go search for it if you want me to :)

I don't usually draw that sketchy or press that hard, but it was 2 am and I was angry about not sleeping. I'm working on the final version now, and this time I'm putting a tad more effort into it.

Smoother shading + contrast with shading = better pic

That's my advice B)

I now have a favorite doom pic.

Oh yeah, I have pics in my sig! That reminds me, I have a doom comic series I never got around to making. Oh, and that marine re-drawing is currently on pause since I can't draw muscles for crap.

By the way, has there ever been a Doom comic by the name of "Doomed?" I need to know before I get any serious work done on my series.
