Nancy

Richard Testani / art, friend / 0 Comment

This is a piece I simply traced and colored over. Not the most appreciated form of art, but it can be a little tricky in deciding which lines to actually use. What makes this project very fun is that you can apply any style you want to it, and almost just concentrate on the style. [...]

Girl with a Bug.

Richard Testani / grunge, illustration, pinups / 0 Comment

Taken from some image I found on the Internet. For some reason, I couldn’t tell if it was done or not, I guess you be the judge. Again, done all in Photoshop.

Vanities

Richard Testani / art, illustration, pinups / 0 Comment

Continuing with sketching of lovely woman, I drew up a version of a Vanities magazine cover in a comic style in just black in white. I think I messed the eyes up a little, but i like the style. Done completely in Photoshop.

My Muse

Richard Testani / illustration / 0 Comment

I picked up a Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet this past week – and this thing rocks. For only $199 bucks, you can the Wacom professional quality pressure sensitive tablet, the same as the professional level Intuois series for half the price at this size. The pen area  measures 8.5 x 5.4 inches with plenty of [...]

Susan: August 21, 2009

Richard Testani / bond, nude, penil, sketch / 0 Comment

My latest sketch which is of Susan, whom I’ve never drawn before. She was a large woman (not obese) but I don’t think I’ve drawn a large woman before. Posed some interesting challenges. Sketch was done with HB, 4B and 7B graphite pencils on bond.

Woman: Never Got Her Name

Richard Testani / illustration, model, nude / 0 Comment

From today’s open sketch, a woman whom I’ve sketched before but with not the greatest success. This time around I am quite pleased with how she resulted. I especially like her face, how its tilted down. The portion I’m most unhappy about is her legs, which seem shortened or large compared to the rest of [...]

Bill: May 15, 2009

Richard Testani / man, sketch / 1 Comment

We had a male this week named Bill, and he was a great model. Such a cool and majestic pose with a defined body to draw from. The trident was added by me, but he was holding a bamboo stick. I didn’t get to stay as long as I wanted to so it’s pretty incomplete. [...]

Connie: May 19, 2009

Richard Testani / connie, girl, sketch / 1 Comment

I sat and sketched my girlfriend while she was watching TV last night. I ended up leaving her in simple line forms rather than shading in shadows and detail. She was wearing all black with black hair, it seemed ok to leave as outline. I used a 2B graphite pencil on bristol. It’s about 70% [...]

Freya – May 8, 2009

Richard Testani / art, illustration, sketch / 0 Comment

Today’s model was Freya, a red headed young woman. I got to class late, so pickings for an angle was pretty small. I was able to get profile shot which was nice for a change actually. My styles tend to change with the model, Freya seemed to have a comic book or fantasy quality about [...]

Quick Test with Grayscale

Richard Testani / illustration / 0 Comment

Sitting on my stoop this afternoon practicing my grayscale values. Created a strip and an odd robot/human-isque shape with bad lighting. Used a 4b for the job.
