Cripple Con Part Deux!

Just got back from the craziest most funnest art bash Excelsior Springs, MO has ever seen.  It all took place over this past weekend and I had a great time, as I did last year.  Congratulations to Eggs Philby for winning The Crippie Award-Overall Bestest of the Con!  Here's my artwork from the convention

RANDOM SKETCH

This is actually based on a reference photo of Alex Kapranos, the lead singer of the brilliant Franz Ferdinand. I wasn't really too concerned with the likeness and overall was pretty happy with it as a sketch.

STEVEN GERRARD

Could this be our year? Could it? Could it be?
This man is going to do his damndest to try.

...as I promised

This was so fun to do, and they totally loved it and bought a big frame and ALL that.  Both of them had some great reactions when they saw it, too.  The first kid I drew(the one on the right) actually went straight to the ground and was rolling around laughing.  They were Awesome Aussies!

This started off as a pencil sketch but after some erasing, some more tweaking, and some more erasing, I decided to render it digitally in Photoshop. I really need to pick the 'ol pencil up again and do some proper sketches. Photoshop is all very well and good but sometimes you just can't beat the sketch pad and pencil (and an eraser just in case)

What good is a Bono without an Edge?
