This was for an Editorial Class Assignment back in College. Course was taught by Chuck Scalin. Very fun class. The end illustrations were required to be placed into the layout of the article. The floppy disks and serial cord plug on the side of his neck show how dated this illustration is. Pep posed for this picture. I was going for a pure concept of computer and human interaction. Becoming one with your computer. Funny how true that is today. Seems like people cannot live without their computers. This was one of the first techniques I learned at school from Alex Bostic. Pencil under drawing with a medium wash of Paynes Grey. You would think use black to make the shadows and white to build the highlights. He mainly used acrylic and brush, but I preferred using colored pencil for most of my sharp detail work they allowed me more control.
