In my mind, Jonesy and Robert are tied for the spot of favorite Led Zep member, this picture is awesome!

Indeed! It's hard to find good pics of him...he seems to stay out of the spotlight

Thanks! Wish I had some really good large sharp photos of him to work from. That's the biggest difficulty He's such a great musician, but pretty shy of the camera, it seems

LedZeppelin95MC In reply to Cynthia-Blair [2009-07-23 23:31:32 +0000 UTC]

He was actually one of the more crazy ones out of all of them. He just kept a really low profile, he also changed his hairstyle alot more often so when he did do crazy things with Robert, Jimmy, John, and Richard he wouldnt be as recodnizable. But like you stated before he is truly a great musician.

I can appreciate that- keeping a low profile is the way to go, in my opinion!
I haven't listened to anything he's done recently, but I should catch up with him.

LedZeppelin95MC In reply to Cynthia-Blair [2009-07-24 04:59:57 +0000 UTC]

Yeah great musicians never stop making great music. But as far as keeping a low profile theres nothing wrong with that, I think its good to be the center of attention also though. Hey if you get a free molment check this out, [link] Well back to the main subject again, Great Artwork, I love everything you have done with Page. I got to look at some of it and its fantastic. Its almost genius I would say.
Thanks-Matt

I went to check the link, but it said: "The URL contained a malformed video ID." so maybe when you cut and pasted the URL you missed one of the last numbers or something...anyhow, re-send if you get the chance.

Thanks for your compliments! Yes,with Pagey I had one really excellent hi-res photo to work from, the others, blurry and old. It makes a HUGE difference in my drawing.

Actually no. I am though, im the guitarist and there my biggest influence. The band does alot of blues and classic rock, but ever since I joined Led Zeppelin has become a very big part of our image. Thankyou though I would never think of us as the next Zeppelin.
Thanks-Matt

Do I spy some white gouache here? I love the smooth texture of it Gouache is one of my favorite mediums. Good job incorporating it with the charcoal! It creates really good contrast.

Cynthia-Blair In reply to styrofoamheart [2009-06-15 01:40:04 +0000 UTC]

I almost always use gouche (both white and black) in my drawings, it really helps smooth out the texture, makes hair more silky. Then I usually draw over it again with the charcoal for detail.

he's my fav too (obviously xD) just like patrick is in fob, he's a pain to draw though. SPEAKING of that i found a good reference picture of patrick if your interested in drawing him again ;]

Cynthia-Blair In reply to ootamukun [2009-06-06 03:15:34 +0000 UTC]

yes, I need to draw a new Patrick. There's a shot in the latest AP, but it doesn't really look enough like classic Stump. He's so adorable in the really old shots, without the extra cheeseburgers/cinnamon toast crunch/ice cream/pizza he's wearing these days.
such a talent! I think he works way too hard.
yes, I'd love to see your pic of him.

awesome in his lawyer costume and power tie! They were so great live, my first time to see FOB. Pete was downright CREEPY, the way he stared right through you...maybe it had max impact because we were about 5 feet away, but wow. I didn't expect them to be that good.

yes Patrick was so incredibly cute when he was younger, that photo with the wooly hat...

I know! When I saw Panic i was about 5 feet away and just the way Brendon looked at me was o_O. If you ever need reference pictures of that man I got you covered xD
I internet lurk so much haha

this one is my new fav [link]

Cynthia-Blair In reply to ootamukun [2009-06-10 01:40:28 +0000 UTC]

ooo...he looks a little like Pete there, but he's alot more handsome. That's why I thought he'd be the last person to notice me, because I know he wears glasses but not when he's performing. I know I don't see as well with my contacts.

There is one site where I found most of my large PATD photos, I think it was PATDonline...it is a huge site too. well organized. I'm sure you know of it.
