Hi my dear readers and all art lovers in general, welcome back to my artistic blog, today I bring you a new drawing which I titled Roswell and the law of the street, Roswell is a high member of a criminal gang called the Locks and heir to take control of this gang as it is one of the oldest and most ruthless members, this is a drawing more in the style of video games like GTA Vice City, San Andreas and others, as I am a fan of this type of video game that surely most will know and that from time to time I like to make drawings and invent characters like this. Here I want to show you this work and tell you how I did it so you can appreciate it a little better and I hope you like it:
PROCESS
First of all I wanted to create the body structure of Roswell's character, I drew many lines and circles to create a little bit the shape of the character and the pose which is the most difficult, then with that established I outlined the whole silhouette very very well to have my final line and then begin to apply the colors, for this drawing I used some tones not very common in my works, but still I liked when applying them in each of the sections, such as the colors I used for the skin.
With the base color well applied on the skin the next thing was to give volume details and create the details of the face, such as the septum of the nose, cheekbone and eyes; then I continued with the painting of Roswell's clothing, as I said before I was a little inspired by the GTA video game to create my character and that's why I wanted to give a touch or a style to the clothes something similar, I applied a first base of red for the shirt and pants and then in new layers I was giving a little texture and shape to the clothes with a variation of scarlet red tones and applying layer effects.
The next thing in my work was to give tone to the hair, for the base of the hair I decided to use a pale brown tone with the watercolor brush to leave that half faded effect, then in a new layer I went little by little detailing the light areas and also the dark areas or with strong shadows, and finally with a thin and specific brush I was creating the locks of hair in large quantity and to the right side to complement the hairstyle; and finally I painted the cigarette, I decided to add this detail to Roswell because I thought it would look more imposing and would give that appearance of a criminal to the character.
Finally I decided to create a good background for my work, being a criminal I thought that creating a night background would give that final touch to complement the character, first I applied some dark blue tones with a rough brush and somewhat blurred, then I painted the clouds one by one with a special brush for this and created the moon behind Roswell and gave it some shine, little by little I was finalizing detail of the sky with additional shimmers and shadows and in this way I completed the whole drawing.
