Check out the photos in my miscellaneous flickr set.

Something I’m working on @ my friend’s appartment:

Tools: markers, airbrush + acrylics. Still got a lot of whitespace  :)

I’ve finished working on one of my current projects recently — a tattoo script for my man Dan Browne, with whose courtesy I’m showing some of the earlier sketches and inking stages photos/scans. Check the final version in my gallery.

First sketch session:

I thought it was pretty interesting to show how the idea appeared and how it headed further, making it into something beautiful. Questions, comments? Welcome!

On a side note, due to the whole crisis fuss & not so stable income from freelance projects, I’m currently looking for a day job in my town, and the sad fact is some projects are delayed. I will try my best to quickly get back to everyone who wanted to work with me once I’m done with the routine :)

So I’m learning how to create letters with the almighty Adobe Illustrator…

It’s been pretty tough for me in the beginning — I’m too used to draw letters by my own hands, but there are some cool tricks (smart guides is a really good example) to make it easier. Prepare yourself for my vectors ;)

ps. I’d like to take the opportunity to thank Jonathan Connolly (of creativetempest.com) for his help. Hola, Jon!

Something that might become a t-shirt design. Fountain pen on paper.
