Weak Hand Drawing Challenge Skull

The first of many weak hand drawing challenges and other sketch challenges I'm sure. Just testing how well I Can draw with my left hand which is not my drawing hand. Turned out quite well I suppose.

Vampire Skull Copic Marker Quick Sketch

Did this quick sketch of a Vampire skull with the brush tip of a black copic marker for Halloween. The brush tip works very well at creating thick and thin ink lines. This requires more experimentation, but it is an effective marker, so I will be doing more of this type of quick sketch work on camera.

Drawing A Coloring Page Idea

Thought I'd show you a video in the process of me drawing a page in my upcoming coloring book for adults. A horror coloring book that will be filled with my nightmare creations. Even after I finished the drawing in the video I think I'll be adding bits and pieces to it just to add more stuff to color in...Should be a fun project and if all goes well, I shall be doing more adult coloring books in the future.

Drawing A Zombie Dragon Concept Idea (video)

Half pencil and half inked sketch of the zombie dragon head.


Drawing a Zombie Dragon idea and concept on video. This was a good attempt at drawing something larger and more time was spent on the early sketch to get certain elements right such as the wings and head of the Zombie Dragon.





I also thought it would be cool to show this drawing video of a more in depth Zombie Dragon head I did back in 2012, just to give you some variety of approach the task of drawing zombified Dragons...it's all fun stuff to draw!

The Importance Of Thumbnail Sketches

Creating thumbnail sketches for drawings you intend to complete is a very important task to do as an illustrator. I've recently started to do this more than ever, because I receive commission requests a lot now and I need to get the drawing right.

Line Quality Drawing Tip

Drawing tip of the day is all about line quality and that basically means the thin or thickness of your ink lines on your illustrations or drawings and varying this on your art really makes your artwork pop and be something even more visually interesting.

How To Draw Zombie Spiderman

drawing zombie spiderman
Drawing Zombie Spiderman has been a long time coming really as a few years ago I wasn't quite comfortable drawing anatomy for prolonged periods of time, but as my art is getting better I thought I would have a go at drawing this.

How to draw Zombie Spiderman isn't a too detailed or well planned drawing, but the underlying concepts and skill sketching it is worth a good look.

I used a mechanical pencil to sketch the initial rough draft drawing and then a uni-pin ink pen to ink the outlines and clear things up and finally a red and blue letraset promarker for the quick sketchy colors.

Check out the video.
