'Space Queen' Sketch

Published:
5.3K Views

Description

Original Size: approximately 81/2" x 11" Medium: 2b, HB, H pencil & graphite

This is the original sketch I did for a color painting I will post later. I drafted this piece with 50's Sci-Fi comics & films in mind. In many of those flicks, the amazonian/space queen would always wear a huge crown, displaying her royalty and status. Even in the 1930's serials of "Flash Gordon", you would see Ming the Merciless's daughter with a wild space cap!! In the final piece, I may add some spaceships fighting in the background to add to the feeling.

This is the first piece I am displaying using my new scanner, so zoom in and see how it looks. This scan was made from a B & W copy because the original is a bit too big. If the quality is not high or you notice some grain, please forgive me and let me know since I am continuing to tinker & fine tune it!!

Oh yeah, I totally got a sweet 1950's Sci-Fi feel from this one! Amazing work, as always. Her proportions and anatomical detail are (delightfully!) impressive.
