Description This isn't the first Tommy Lee Jones effort I've drawn and I'm sure it won't be the last. With a face like that there're always new angles to attempt. It's another digi-pencil job and it's a bit of a crazy ol' learning curve. There're certain frustrations that you don't get with a real pencil on paper but it's countered with some real nice advantages such as solid blacks and no erroneous lines. You have to exercise even more control with the cintiq as lines can wobble a lot easier so I'm intrigued to see if it makes me tighter with a real pencil after time. Keep on keepin' on.

This is absolutely great- not only have you caught the tough cragginess of the man's features, but also the inherent pensive sadness the face conveys. A fine actor, beautifully drawn. Good stuff.

Another quality post!
the hardest thing i found about setting up the cintiq is finding the right height desk and angle to work as you dont want to be putting weight on it. How are you finding it Russ?

RussCook In reply to fake173 [2010-03-31 13:46:07 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, Man. Getting on OK with the Cintiq. Great fun to use and a real boon in certain areas - it's just re-aligning the way I draw and paint - it's all good. I generally work with it flat and I don't feel I'm weighing it down unduly. It seems a robust piece of kit - as well it should for the price it was!

I was just watching MIB again and I noticed something that made me laugh: when the car is up-side-down on the tunnel, the only two things proving that Tommy Lee is really up-side-down is his hair and his earlobes, that hang loosely. lol.

great work, btw
