Pencil work for book cover for SQP publications from early last year. Yes, brief was to include some nudity though I'm not sure how well bare chests fit into the military dress code!

Cheers man! Might sound like a cliche, but it really is all about practice. I try to do some kind of drawing, painting or related research every day and have done for many years.

My prob is I have too many passions, atm I'm trying to make a steam engine wooden model boat with some friends, has to be radio controlled too. I also love to model in clay and in 3D with blender, I love to draw, and write too, I like to make cartoons and comic strips and also real artistic drawings with ball point pens and pencil mainly, I rly can't paint for shit. All i know is ur work is awesome!

Great drawing. Sir I wanted to ask you if you used ref for the clothing and the boots? Because I try to learn to make that stuff up from imagination and try to construct it from the scratch. I am kinda getting crazy with trying that. So I wanted to ask you, how you get such realistic things on the paper.

I find I can 'make up' folds etc to a certain level, but when you want to go as detailed and complex as in this illustration some kind of reference really is a must. I had a friend put on a large army shirt and took some reference photos, I dressed my maniquin (yes I have a maniquin in my studio :D) in the pants and combination of friend wearing the boots and having them on my desk as I sketched.
Burne Hogarth did a book about the theory and practice of drawing clothing called "Dynamic Wrinkles and Drapery" and its helpful for understanding how material folds. I also used to sketch shirt and pants folds in my sketchbook, along with faces when I travelled on the train - but no matter your theory and memory for these things, you cant beat some kind of reference if you really want to take it to a extremely detailed finish. I have a wardrobe full of costumes and as I said, a maniquin, just for such purposes! :D
Hope that helps and happy drawing!
