Lemmy

Lemmy. Of Motorhead. The legend.

He's always been my favourite musician. And I haven't drawn him since 2003... Unforgivable!

But after watching the recent documentary about him, I decided to do what I postponed for years - draw Lemmy again!

I haven't drawn portraits in traditional way, i.e. with pencil, for years as well. When I started drawing, I discovered that I practically didn't have the necessary materials - no quality paper, even no normal eraser It didn't stop me though. But that's what drawing mostly digitally does to you.

Quite satisfied with the pic, though I can see some things that are bit off. Well, that is to be expected when you don't practice your skills ) Initially I wanted to make it as realistic as I could, but I just don't like overly smooth pencil drawing. So I decided to skip blending.

The hat... Yeah. Never again!
