Description
Serj Tankian
Art Trade with the wonderfully talented
We're doing a Serj-Trade XD
It was another Prismacolor challenge!
Only 4 colours used:
-Sandbar Brown
-Dark Umber
-Beige Sienna
-White
The paper had a lovely texture about it, so I concentrated mainly on lighting and shadows rather than features.
For a couple of hours work, I'm pretty happy with it.
And my my, Serj has become quite the silver fox!
Hope you like it, Nico!
I took the pose from a photograph I found in KERRANG! Magazine a few years ago.

He liked the blue drawing I did of him a few years ago when I showed it to him in person.
He signed it with lovely words! (A few of us were waiting outside a restaurant for him when he toured the UK in 2007, I think it was)
Was a great moment for me

I really like the colour on this one. Compliments his pose perfectly.
The way you've snuck in your signature on his jacket pocket like a label is awesome aswell.
