Sept 4th: Graphite Portrait

Finished the second kid today!  Well all minus the arm on his shoulder and the hand.


All my problems today came from freaking logos and brand names. I started the day with the hat, noticing that there's some kind of design I couldn't make out in the middle.  So I drew it as close as I could, but didn't draw it too dark.  Barely visible on the picture was a "fox" brand.  So I used my kneaded eraser and made sure I didn't make it too bright.   Just enough so you can see it.  I darkened his shirt and attempted to free hand the AERO lettering.   Yeah, that was a mistake.   I ended up erasing a huge chunk of the shirt and using my projector to make the letters far less embarrassing.   I still don't like them, I don't know what I'll do about them yet.
Tomorrow I'll fix little things with kid #2.  Finish the arm.  Then I'll move on to the girl.
