Old Porno cartoons

One of the best ways for an artist to keep in the zone between art engagements is to draw porn. It keeps the hand fluid by creating curves and the eye alive by constantly evaluating shadows and light sources.

Plus, its fun!

Kelly Brook update

CLICK TO ENLARGE

Almost on the final leg(?) of the illustration of Kelly Brook which I started vector-tracing over a week ago in my spare time.

I've learned a lot by using the gradient mesh and transform mesh tools and my anchor point tweaking has improved tremendously.

Its been an experience working this way as my normal output seldom includes so much gradient work but its handy to know if something of this type crops up again.

Keep watching for the final illustration. Feel free to make suggestions for the background (keep it simple).

Kelly Brook Vector Pin-Up

After a successful re-rendering of Girlz, I decided to embark on an epic vectorisation of a photo of Kelly Brook.

It is now a scientifically proven fact that Kelly Brook has the perfect body.

Scientists at the University of Texas say that her perfect waist to hip ratio, which happens to be 0.70588253, makes her visually very attractive.

The research has proved that the waist to hip ratio is the secret to attraction. The lower the ratio, the perfect the figure.

Measuring your waist at the narrowest point and dividing it by the measurement of widest point of your hips calculates the ratio.

Anyone around the 0.7 mark has the visually most attractive body.

So, what better way to reproduce her than in Illustrator?

The original photo

Cops and Hookers Poster

Yet another fine rendering I found on some web-site.

I love the way the unknown artist has positioned the
camera so that the girls' legs resemble trees in a forest.

Redhead

A quick study of a redhead I found on the web.
Photoshop cutout filter then traced in Illustrator before adding detailing.

SUBWAY GAL poster

Met her at a show at my mate Gordon's gallery in Edgware Rd., London. Yes, you know who you are, honey.

Bad Girl 02

Another pic of the party animal in its natural habitat. Jungle boogie or what?
