Artist's Comments

Iron Man; Tony Stark, inspired by the recent film release

11 hours - 4B, 2H

Done to practise lighting and reflective surfaces.
Had to tone down the reflections from the source image as he looked quite plastic-y.
His actual suit is metallic yet matte at the same time (not chrome or plastic) and i tried to achieve that in this drawing.

Critiques


:icondanielhovdahl:
That looks fantastic, and the grain really adds to the metal finish.

Though, I think you should've maybe darkened the background, before drawing it, with charcoal or a very soft pencil and then smudge it out so it becomes relatively smooth, maybe with a gradient so it's darker at the bottom. As this would really show the contrast in the image, as the total white-ness of the background is quite distracting somehow and doesn't work with how dark the shadows are.
But I know how much work getting a background like that would be, just a thought on how the image would really "pop".

But nonetheless, absolutely fantastic.
The Artist thought this was FAIR

Chose wisely on the paper and resultant textures. The iron surfaces look tougher and more industrial, which I think meshes more with what a classic Iron Man should exude. Cast iron kudos to you on this awesome piece, bro! =)
