Hard Boiled




"It was raining cats and dogs here on the seedy side of the City of Angels, and I have the scratches to prove it...the smell of wet fur, all that meowing and barking. It was enough to make a guy want to leave Detective work and get into something simple, something pure....like soda jerking...or theme park design..."

And so our story of one hard boiled detective begins. He was a great model, I wish I had better drawings to show for it.

Love your sketches from models. I am jealous that you get to draw this way. Sometimes, I really miss Craig Nelson's sketching for illustration class.

Thanks Ben, believe it or not, there are drawing workshops almost any evening of the week her in the big city, usually $20 for a 3 to 4 hour session. I just luck out that we do a free one after work every 2 weeks. Keeps you fresh!
