Description This is an exercise I do regularly. I redraw something by an artist I like as a way to see how they solve problems in their work. I generally have a few of these laying around the studio. It's a good way to get warmed up for inking.

This is a paperback cover by one of my favorite artists: Robert McGinnis en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_M…

Here's another example of his work. www.americanartarchives.com/mc…

I did this 10 x 15 on Bristol board, I inked it with a Raphael Martre Kolinksy 8404 #0 brush. Color in Photoshop CS5.

Thanks. I was trying to emulate McGinnis' style digitally. A strange combination, honestly.

Thanks, Scott. It's an interesting study to go from McGinnins' paint style to a brush and ink style.
