Transformers: Bumblebee drawing


Bumblebee. And below is the original picture.




I know, I know, it's not the most creative thing I could have drawn, but it's still nice to have something this cool in your own sketchbook. Next: Megatron.

Drawing the Statue of Liberty




Strictly speaking it's not finished yet (see the blank space at the bottom?) but at this point it looks good enough and I'd much rather start a new project, so here it is.

Drawing Michelangelo's Pieta

Pieta
My rendition of Pieta. I'm not entirely satisfied with the way it turned out -- the contrast could be more pronounced, and Mary's dress could be a little more realistic. But practice is practice.

Semi-realistic tiger drawing


And here is the first cat I've ever drawn. It turned out a little more cartoony than I intended, but I guess the first attempt is all about trial and error.

The next addition to my collection will hopefully be ready by the end of this year. I already bought a picture frame for it and can't wait to hang it up.
