Harley Davidson Commission

I was asked to draw a Harley Davidson Street Glider for a present and the idea of that scared me a little. I know that the detail in the motors are really high and knew it'd be a challenge. To make it more fun for myself, I suggested we add Ghost Rider into the mix and thankfully the client went for it. The new Ghost Rider drives a muscle car but I wanted to draw him anyway since his history with bikes is long and full of life. I also wanted to draw the new GR because he's Latino and I don't get to draw enough Latino characters. If you watch the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show, you'll see him there. 

Feel free to reach out to me at thelearningcurv@gmail.com if you'd like a custom piece of art for yourself or your loved ones. The holidays are coming and this would be an amazing gift for you and yours!

Below you can see what the pencil and ink stage of the piece look like.

Lady & Hoots

Continuing in the cartoony vain, here is Lady & Hoots, a commission created for a client who wanted his little cousins turned into superhero types on a comic styled cover. The nicknames of the children are in the title and I was asked to create their looks in the theme of their nicknames.

I had so much fun designing the boys costume that I had to do some more drawings of it, in a slightly different way to separate it from the look of the commission so that it was my own.  I tried to make it simpler  and easier to replicate, giving the original commissioned piece more detail and more bang for the buck.

Below is the final color version next to the original inked piece.

Tink runnin wit los Loco's=]

I was commissioned to create an illustration with Tinkerbell being an engineer, with the conductors suit and the Steam Engine being the two other things in the mix that needed to be there. The client told me the man that she was giving this to took down his favorite picture in his office and replaced it with this=] I was very honored to hear that!

Sometimes I almost wish I only had to do pencil drawings with regards to commissions, they hold so much life in them.  I will always enjoy doing illustrations though, I can't help but be happy seeing the end result, knowing that my mind and body was able to begin a concept and see it through to create this final product!
