New Drawing - Blue Honda Accord with Graffiti

i just finished a new drawing for a friend of mine. i'm stoked on how it came out. all done in prisma marker on bristol paper. it's a blue 2000 honda accord. the graffiti reads his name "Muyo" and "AccordEX" which is his username at AccordRacing.com





and here is the original



i took pictures showing the progress (sorry for the really bad quality, these next pics were taken with my camera phone):

i didn't take a pic before i colored in the accord, but i hope that's okay.



here i added the light and dark blue fill-ins, some black 3-d, and a grey glow around the piece and car.



some detail on that last pic



this is it where it's just about done. i'm just filling in the black background.



and of course the the end result is at the top of the page.

Thank you guys for reading. hope you enjoyed.

Christian Cortes - Savage Sword

i found this video of an artist named Christian Cortes. this guys is freaking awesome with the ink. He is a full-time Art Director in New York for an apparel company, as well as a freelance illustrator and painter. In the video he draws a piece of artwork he calls "Savage Sword" in a sketchbook. I love the detail he incorporates.

the most important image ever taken

a few weeks ago i saw this and it totally "wow'd" me. it's not necessarily art related, but it does give me inspiration. the most important image ever taken by humanity, they call it.



i think it's freakin' awesome. it makes me feel so small. very humbling.
