Foosers2

I finally got some time to colour some skecthes I did at the World Championship of Foosball...
Here some keen spectators;

Pirate

Some ideas for Captain Blackbeard's face.

Biro

Although not as good as the art pen graphicly,I find easier and faster sketching with a normal pen...

Art pen

I have used again after few years the Art Pen,I remember now why I stopped using them:
meanwhile it works,it doesn't,than it gets stuck,you shake it and some inks drops out ,push it and a big drop goes on the comic page you nearly finished ruining the "b...dy" page,you open the pen first in the morning and it's all leaking and sticky,after an hour of working with it your hand it's marked with ink..etc.etc.

Two old friends

I found these sketches of 2 old jolly fellows between my papers...

Got The Message!

Hey Boys(reference: Speechless post below)got the message,starting with a bit of a mix faces,some more caricatural some more realistic...

Johnny & Angelo

I'm still here folks!!
No much time for sketching at the moment,but I've got here my first attempt
at using Airbrush on Photoshop with two characters ,Johnny the Little Devil and Angelo the Little Angel ,a long standing project of mine..I got fed up after a while,I didn't know how to save selections etc. etc. all by hand ,a pain in the neck!!
But ,I got it now,next job should be easier...pheww...

Speechless

Old men

A study of old men faces for a project of mine;if you want to see more click on my other blog on the links;

My Favourite Journalists

Although I've never studied caricatures,I love them,so sometimes I'll give it a go...
Starting with one of the best journalist in Television, BBC Political Editor:the Great Nick Robinson(at least in my view).

Ps:Carry on keeping them on their toes Nick...

Back at work

Here I am again;
Starting where I left...

Quick Note

Some fast Apaches heads sketching to say that for the next 2,3 weeks I will not be able to post regular drawings,after that things will go back to normal.
Ciao

Native Americans

As a child I've always been fascinated about the American "Indians",in fact one of my dream was to meet one in person, which I did when I went to Florida for the first time in 1993 visiting a Seminole and Miccosukee village ,it was very exciting;
A quick note of history,1848 a band of Seminoles retrevied in the Everglades and never surrendered to the USA Army;
In 1934 they signed the Peace Treaty;
If I have time I'll do a series of them...

My Surgeon

This Doctor is Nikos Reissis,he has performed on me at least 5 operations trough my Sporting Activities(3 Cartilage,2 Anterior Cruciate Ligaments) in a grand total of 9.
Soon I'll need him "AGAIN",I've worn out a piece of bone(homer)+ligament tear in my right elbow(playing table football),can't get rid of him....
Mamma Mia!!!!

Artist's Brain

Some days you just let the brain free,today this was the occipital outcome.... let's see in the future...

My Best Friend

I have to rest my swallen elbow,so I 'll post some pencils of a story I did few years ago,Donald Duck has been my best friend for 13 years.....

Third Age

Talking about death,I'm getting old(not looking forward to it),but I'm fascinating about old chaps,I will post here any interesting one I come across....

Bad Dream

I had a bad dream yesterday,as usual I can't remember exactly what happened,Zombies?Death?Who knows,so today I put few fast sketches together.

Meet the "Foosers"

I love Foosball (Table Football)since I was a boy,I have played a number of years"professionally" in the UK/World ;of course to stay with the best you have to practise a lot,and that has been my downfall(like in any other sport I've done in my life),at the moment I've got problems with arms and elbows and I can't play,so I'll start to post some of the great guys/friends that play this beautiful sport,top to bottom:
Dave Ziemann :The Stealth
Rhys Roberts:The Bulldog
Declan Egan:The Flamboyant
Albert Tamou:The Assyrian
