Ready - Illustration

Another lightbox traced image. This makes my second Military illustration in my quest to regain my lost skillz at illustration. I rushed the ink job on this picture and it shows. I know I need to take my time with these things, but I have that A.D.D. thing going on, so I want to get pieces finished fast so I do not lose interest. I've been afflicted with this attitude all my life, which makes me good at whatever I do, just not the best.

I am averaging one inked picture a week, which for me is really good. Fulltime job, and a budding film career will only give you a few hours free time for stuff like this.

This image is a reproduction from multimedia blogger-journalist Kevinsite.net. I believe the original picture was taken in November 2004, during the Fallujah raid in Iraq. I thought the image had good composition, so i decided to draw it. Post comments if you have any.

And go read kevinsites.net ... it's a great look into the military life during the Iraq Freedom/Occupation. Lets hope it stays online for decades to come.
