Drawing The Hipster Sheriff

This is the Hipster Sheriff. He has got a nice beard and a pair of stud earrings I guess that is the reason for his being a hipster right? Hahaha. Very fun idea and art to create inspired by the original post of @doze. If you look at that drawing it is mainly a line drawing using a brush that looks blotchy but that is the technique in creating a nice character like this sheriff here. Looks easy and simple but in reality this is hard to pull off.

So how did I make my sheriff?

I made a draft using pencil on a scrap of paper. I want to be sure the shape of the sheriff I got right. The proportion of the eyes and ears including that beard. If I get them right then maybe my drawing will look as good as the original which you can find here

Next is I inked it with a black permanent ink marker. From here I can already tell that I missed creating those rough and blotchy lines like the original. I am using a marker so I am not sure if I can recreate those lines. Too bad those lines gave the original drawing that certain quality.

Coloring the drawing using washable colored pens. I used three shades of yellow to give some depth to my drawing. Unlike the original I put the yellow color on the character and not on the background.

Hope you like it and if you are interested to take part go ahead and check the link and be inspired by @doze 's art.
