Default Drawing Jam 31:Frank Frazetta Tribute


First of all, sorry for the delay everyone. We've been very busy on our end and while it's not an excuse I hope you guys can understand.

I wanted to do a Frazetta tribute since Frank passed away yesterday. I know that the Story Tellers contest is doing a tribute as well and my intention is definitely not to step on their toes in anyway. I just feel that since the theme over there is specifically Conan, it would be nice to do an all around Frazetta tribute. There are so many worlds that Frank has created that you can choose from pretty much everything. I also feel like we NEED to give a tribute to the king of fantasy illustration!!!! He has affected all of us, either directly or indirectly. soooo.... let's pay tribute to the greatest illustrator of the genre. Whether it be painting something in his style or painting his portrait, or recreating one of his iconic paintings or characters. The canvas is open! So please let's get some participation this time around guys and gals!!!!

good luck and have some fun.

-b

Deadline is Monday May, 24th. (sorry you miss one day)
Please don't use old artwork, create new images for this jam
And you can post your WIP's in this thread if you want to, but only the final image is necessary to participate.

Good luck all!

        i had no idea who frank frazetta was until i saw the news but when i looked up his work it was really incredible and inspirational so i wanted to try do something for this jam.

        im still rubbish at drawing digitally so i took this image of his and roughly traced it then started working it up using the original as a refrence. maybe once i have done i will try and draw something from scratch in his style. here is the original image. i know copying his work dose not really count to be judged but if i post this here i will be more inspired to work on it and make an original piece.

            Default Jaguar God and the missus. And the other missus.


            Hey Orange 13 that's what I'm talking about. My favorite concept so far. I love the Jaguar God and the Swamp Demon the most. But how can I choose out of any of them. Kirby, Frazetta and Moebius are all modern masters.

            Hello out there, this is my first drawing jam. not sure how this all works, but this is my work in progress so far. I don t know if I will continue with this because I don t feel all that right about trying to do a painting in Franks style. One thing is for sure, I am learning allot while doing this study. In fact it has helped me think about story telling in my art more. Something that I am trying to focus on more.

            Peace.
            Helmutt

                Default Honor and Victory


                Hello everyone, here is my latest work in progress for this art jam. I am thinking this will be my final unless you guys out there see something that I could improve on.

                Frank Frazetta is legendary and it has been an honor to pay tribute to his life long work.

                Thanks Frank for your work and inspiration.

                Peace.
