I must say it looks amazing. I decided to draw a custom chopper and I also want to see more moto drawings like these . You didn't said about the time you spend on it? In hours how much it aprox?
I am very impressed especially with the shine metal parts, chrome etc.
Another question, would you mind if I ask you about the paper, what paper exactly did you used, and can you give me a link or something where I can buy this paper?
Thank you for sharing this beautiful drawing.

Thanks......this was about 16in x 22in drawing on Canson 100lb/225gsm 18x24 and I probably put in +80hrs and worked on it at night and on weekends for about a month.

Hobby Lobby is where I usually get my paper but you can probably get it at most art supply stores including on-line.

I guess I could do a WIP on the next one....as for the chrome and highlights it's just a matter of creating tones and values around them and a eraser to clean up any smudges!.......The darker the tones the greater the contrast.

This is an incredible drawing. I like the metal shining parts. How long it took to finish it?
Take a look at my aston martin [link] and tell me your opinion (if you don't mind). Thanks

Great work. Love the detail and the chrome in particular. Can't help thinking that the background would have been better left as plain white with just a touch of shadow under the wheels but just nitpicking.

Congrats on your first comission, you should be proud.

yeah...the background was not what I wanted it to be,was late,short on time and tired.If I could I would change it,tempted to ask for it back so I can!

Spectacular !!
Love the chrome.

Yeah .. maybe the watermark is a good idea - after all, someone has paid for an original.
Anyone could print out their own version from here.

Thanks Brendan...the chrome drove me nuts with all the highlights!

That's what I was worried about,not that anyone on DA would perpetrate such a thing and not that my stuff is worthy but better to be safe!
