Evening all
This is a sketch of 2-D from the Gorillaz. The Gorillaz are one of my all time favourites as each album has always brought something new and different to the scene.
This was done over 12 years ago with a 2B pencil as is my usual go to pencil grade for all of my drawings. This is the final Gorillaz piece in my collection if I remember correctly.
If I find any other Il be putting them up don't you worry.
I can't remember where the idea came from or if I used a reference picture. But I would assume it will be around the time of the Feel Good Inc music video release. Solely due to the windmill on his hat.
That is the best estimation I can give for this.
The benefit of the Gorillaz characters are that they are all fairly straight lines to their artwork so they do make it a bit easier to draw.
Also with them being mostly colourful, when I have coloured them in the past they do come out really nicely. The vibrant colours bring out the character on paper really well and allow the viewer to know who they are pretty quickly. Even if the drawing is pretty poor like some of mine are.
I do think I will revisit the Gorillaz and do some more artwork based on them just for the sheer joy I remember them bringing me when I drew them.
I will put a link to my socials below:
