Taahir Henry Quarter 2

I enjoyed the second quarter, because there was more freedom in what could be done. I decided to do some sketches, because its just what I was more comfortable with.  I used a sketch book and a couple of pencils. I wasn't sure of what I wanted to do at first, so I just used the first things I saw and sketched them. I started off with some that were simpler and moved on to ones with more detail. Before this project, I hadn't sketched anything in a long time.  As I started to get used to sketching again, things became easier.  One thing that was challenging for me was keeping things proportional, especially ears and eyes.  The last sketch I made is a self portrait from a side view.

I chose to sketch Murdoc, 2-D, and Noodle from the Gorillaz. I left out the fourth member, and did a drawing of myself instead. The album artwork is what lead me to make the self portrait, even though I had originally intended on drawing the fourth member (Russel). I was in the process of drawing Russel when the sketch started to remind me of myself so I decided to turn it into a self portrait.

This is before I darkened the hair.

The final sketch.
