An Ancient Warrior Sketch; "A Spear in Time"
I would love to share with you guys an Impression of Ancient Greek armour I came across some two years ago while I was sorting images to illustrate one of my poems titled; "The Tales of a Legend." Source I will also be sharing this awesome work with you shortly but for now, enjoy the sketch. The sketch as much as possible tries to retain some original content. This is the impression I conjured;
I took pleasure in carving out the outline with my 8B pencil, It has also become my new favourite.
In no time, the figure took shape and all that was left was depth and highlights.
After all the little details were mapped out as well as most of the highlights, I discovered certain anomalies in the area of depth, one I painfully corrected.
The sketch was made with 6, 8 and 10B pencils.
I am really fascinated by the idea behind this sketch and I very much hope that you loved it too.
Thanks for stopping by, see you tomorrow.
