Graphite #4: Sly
Good old times. I remember that a lot of movies I liked as a kid were with Silvester Stallone. The Italian Stallion, John Rambo, Judge Dredd and more. His movies reach from 1969 until nowadays (guest role in Guardian's of the Galaxy 2 a.s.o.). Most of the roles were in typical – “punch'em in the face”-movies. And he knows that. I am sure that this is why he made an homage to all his action-movies with the Expandable series. And his role there is the one I picked for my next drawing.
But before we start:
This piece is just one step on my way of mastering art. I change the media and I want to be able to create different styles of art pieces. Follow me on my journey here on Coil and on Twitter!
And here is the video of my drawing process. I felt like slow pounding rock music sets up the right mood for this character:

I found out that Sly exhibits his art pieces in galleries. He paints. I am going to tag him. Maybe he see's this. I'd be super stoked.
I also made an additional video with my own thoughts on the drawing process. I explain the techniques I was using and the challenges I faced. Unlock my bonus content to dive deeper into this kind of art. See you on the other side!
