My main drawing person.
Inspired by Star Trek, this man is, as you can see by the eyes, a Betazoid. His name is Ian Londer.
To be exact, he was inspired by ST:Voyager "Meld" episode. Not by the killer Lon, but by Tuvok desperate to understand the killer. He somehow appeared. I tried to make him more futuristic (cybernetic eye) but he's just a normal blonde dude with a pony. This portrait was inspired (ripped) from this photo of Till Lindemann.

Inspired by a portrait inspired by an album.
His name is Joseph.
I wanted to "edit" the previous portrait so it would be a different person, more likeable perhaps. The result was, in my opinion, amazing yet simple. I soon made some projects for t-shirts with him, which I proudly wear.

Made a long time ago actually. Such a gentle portrait.

Second custom t-shirt, Joseph smiling kindly and sweetly :)

Shirtless Joseph with a bit more detailed attempt at capturing how he looks like without shirt on.
It's something that "yeah i know he's got that" but not visualizing something on daily basis makes it blurry and difficult to pinpoint. Next i have to either draw this better, or just straight up draw his back.
I can see that i messed up some tilts/proportions, but i still think this one is really cool. The ribs are nice, there is "more of them" than what i would usually try (if ever), and for the purpose of it being an artistic illustration it's nice, although he would "realistically" have just the outer ones. I might really draw that sometime in the future.

For my first custom t-shirt
I swear it looks better on cloth lol.
Also, he was supposed to look comatosed or unconscious, instead he looks high...

Background here
Took me a few days! Almost as i intended it, maybe even better. I like how he looks, very cold.

Yes, i really like this palette.

Background again here
This one looks cleaner. I wanted a different background but couldn't find anything else fitting.

Casual Joseph

After 4 years i decided to give pencils another go.
Here is the source photo.
Kinda looks like a sad hungry panda bear.

Actually a second attempt.
I wanted to draw a nice portrait for J, as Ian already has a proper one.
No metal parts, as those were problematic for the portrait. Looks clearer and better whithout. Could stay that way probably.
Here is the source photo.

i am ~70% satisfied with the result.
I know the shade under his chin is weird, i fixed it but the photo is not up to date.
