I like Markers

Here are some 'marker renderings' that I completed
for school assignments a few years ago.



This first job was to draw a car... as you could probably tell.

This one was chosen to be on 'The Year's Best' poster, they put it right in the center, that was pretty sweet.



Prismacolor markers, white gel pen for some of the white highlights, and a little colored pencil work to bring out some of the reflections a little better.






This one here is of Hunter S. Thompson, obviously.
I was a little shocked when my teacher didn't know who he was...


The requirements for this job stated that there must be space for two full paragraphs of text, while 50% of the whole spread was to be taken up by a face, and had to include a heading and subheading.

This one was fun, I liked trying to
imitate Ralph Steadman's ink splatters
with the markers.






For this, I was only bound by three rules.

There had to be:

-Food
-A Chrome/Metallic surface and,
-Glass

The idea behind these 'marker renderings' was to be able 

to provide a client with a colorful sketch of the image(s) in 

mocked-up concepts in a short amount of time...

So- all of these were done on a restricted time limit. 

I did some practice first, before I started the drawings so that I had some sort of 

a sense of how to get a believable effect on some of the more difficult 

surfaces, but once I started the finished piece I was on clock-watching duty.
