Just finished a new drawing - what sayest thou?

Here it is, at the top of my art page.

The title: “Vice President Wentworth Arrested By His Own Guards, 2038.” You can invent any backstory you want for that.

I thought it came out pretty good so I have submitted it for your enjoyment here.

Quite good artistically, though I have no idea what it’s about. I really like the last drawing on that page too.

I like it very much. I think you could tighten your symmetry just a bit, but there’s an extremely promising talent inside you.

Nice art work.

I like it a lot. I kept going back to look at it some more, which is always a good sign. There are a lot of interesting details and elements.

It does look a little like that second guard is about to give Vice President Wentworth a little oral action, however. Though that does add yet another interesting dimension to the drawing.

I like it; it’s a shame it’s on looseleaf and not a blank paper! I find your characters’ noses to be creepy, though, but that might just be me :slight_smile:

Nice.But I was disappointed the caption didn’t say VP Cheyney as originally read.

I find the helmets worn by the guards to be… puzzling.

I think they’re very nice! Really strong use of the paper, interesting composition, lots of movement, lots of variety in marks and textures. Light lights and dark darks, not tentative.

I like those noses, personally, they’re really distinctive.

The forearms, wrists and hands bothered me a little. Anatomically they’re off, but that’s not that big a deal, since there’s plenty of other exaggeration in your work. However, they seem to be drawn more carefully and less fluidly. Perhaps you could explore ways of stylizing them, as you did the noses?

Better paper is definitely in order.

Well I drew this drawing in the middle of class, so that’s why it’s on notebook paper. Thanks for the comments though. If you’re talking about the forearms in the Workmen drawing, well, that’s just how I do them - veiny and exaggerated. Otherwise I try to get the hands to look as good as possible - sometimes I don’t get it right - any illustrator knows that hands are always the trickiest thing to draw.

The guards’ helmets are supposed to be sort of futuristic.

Thanks for the comments. I’m glad you like them.

Oh, I get it now. Ha ha.

Vice president Wentworth had a lot on his mind. The universal constructor race with EU was having setbacks, the ever growing oil shortage was impeding the plastics manufacturers and causing the economy to slow down, and, adding insult to injury, the stench from the bio-fuel belt was getting blown all the way to DC. His main concern however was of a more personal nature - he was anxiously awaiting the arrival of a certain package, that would eventually enable him to get rid of the “vice” in his job title. Thats when his earlobe signaled him about a new unread message.

“Its all gone wahoonie shaped; change location asap”

Wentworth’s face went pale white. He gripped the redwood armrests of his chair so hard his hands started to tingle due to blood loss. He messaged his driver and security detail to meet him at the west gate, and hastily began to make his way to the east gate. If only he could get out of the white house, and out of DC, it would be all right, he’d get lost, go to Brazil, start over, maybe even get back with his ex wife while he was there. Maybe not so much the wife part Wentworth thought as he walked through the halls towards the east gate. Then he stopped dead in his tracks. His own security detail was standing between him and the exit doors. It was all over. They knew…

I dig it.

Whew. I thought you missed it.
