Description Okay.. no prizes for guessing who this is..
I drew this picture maybe last year, pen and ink, and I found it up a few days ago. It *is* based from a comic picture and perhaps it should be a 'scrap', but I really liked the angular style I managed, plus I'm bored of the flowers on my user page
Please fullview, if you like..
Darth Maul (c) George Lucas

That's cool. I wonder if you'll bring more pen and ink works in the future...

really cool work here, This is a style I really like and try to duplicate when I'm able. Very Frank Miller-esque with the extreme B&W, as for nitpick I would have black-filled the left side, leaving the whites to bulid his profile. Excellent work

Dkelabirath In reply to feeank [2005-06-06 09:46:18 +0000 UTC]

Thank you!
Yeah, I like to look through comics like this.. .. actually it wasn't based on Miller at all but I'm glad that you think it resembles the style..
Really this is just a scrap/rough sketch, but I posted it before the Scraps gallery became active and I don't have so much work up at the moment :S

Man... wow, Thanks!
I just did this from a little drawing I saw in a comic... I was bored and I had a free hlaf hour.
Hmm... perhaps I should draw an actual piece on Maul or somebody? ... then again I don't have my stuf with me ATM..
Thank you!

Hey, this is a very well done drawing! I see what you mean about the angular style, it looks really effective! The comic style is very well done. I like the way the lines are sketchy but crisp, and the contrast of the simple black and white works really well with the angular lines.
Have you thought about tidying up the black areas and colouring this one in? I think it would look really good with a splash of red and yellow

Dkelabirath In reply to rose-saignant [2004-06-05 22:46:28 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the advice!
Actually, I had a shot at colouring it yesterday.. quickly, I mean, I took about 15 minutes over it
It doesn't look too bad but truly I have too much actual work to do atm. Plus some of it has runs, even on the paper version... younger me rubbing out the pencil lines before the ink dried X( .. so probably not, but thank you.

I like how this came out! The lines are very bold and present, they fit perfectly that character!

I really like the facial expression also, especially the mouth...

I made a song about this guy, it went

"Mr Maul, Mr Maul,
He's not very tall,
But his face is rather scary,
And his head's not very hairy!"



I'm crazy
