Martin Skrtel

My apologies (again) for not posting anything in a long time.
Other than the drawings I do for my local newspaper, I haven't had the energy, inspiration or patience to draw anything else. Until last night, when I failed miserably in my pathetic attempts on drawing a couple of people I know - I decided to warm up with a familiar face. Yep. Martin Skrtel. This gradually turned to be a more serious project than a "warm up", and before I knew it - it was bed time.
Nonetheless, I'm happy with the result. Probably my best Skrtel yet. Forgive me for the quality of the picture - it was taken with my iPhone.

Martin Skrtel

Just an old sketch. Now as the Premier League season is over, only Leighton Baines and Martin Skrtel played every 90 minutes of every game throughout the season. Now, that's impressive!

Graphic Design

Assignment - Make five different designs using 10 different photographs and/or textures. Here's my five designs:

Dirk Kuyt - using a photograph from the internet and a picture taken of my Liverpool jersey (which is the C and the A of 'Carlsberg' to the far right). The design really reminds me of Coca-Cola, probably because the red colour to the C and A in 'Carlsberg' is very similar to the label on the Cola bottles.


Liam Gallagher, Oasis - Using an old drawing I made of Gallagher some years ago, added some texture (a red brick wall) and the word 'Victory' split up. The combination of the word and Liam Gallagher/Oasis shouldn't add up, it was a coincidence.

Markus (MarQs) - Using a photo of Markus, adding a little filter and some letters.

Self portrait - Using a small part of my self portrait in coal with the cover of The Stone Roses' self titled debut album and a texture I had from before of.

Martin Skrtel - Using an old drawing, adding up a texture of a wheel track in the snow and mixing it up with some effects and letters.
