Hilary Clinton timelapse drawing

Yup
a process video!
I start off with reference.
Then I use a blue pencil to do a quick sketch, going over it with a thin ball point and finally a brush pen.
After this, I'll scan the image and lay some colors over it. Look for that in the coming weeks!

finished caricature of republican messengers!

Hey there, If you reconize these folks, thumbs up for you!
I can't call this digital, but it's not completely acrylics either, it's mixed media.
I sketched it with pencils, scanned it and did some cleanups in photoshop, then I printed it out and painted over that. After that I scanned the painting and finished it off in photoshop. How much is digital and how much is paint? I'm not sure!
