The Donk by andrew robinson.
This is exactly what they tell you not to draw in art school. I tapped into my teenage psyche for this one. And apparently I'm not a very good speller.

Video Games- Gamer Grrls 3 by Fegredo
The finished art. Each piece had areas of transparency for overlapping, not that it showed in the printed version… Why mention it then, you may ask? Because I did the work damn it! Grumble, grumble, bah.
Video Games- Gamer Grrls 2 by Fegredo
So, pencil roughs for each character, each being either a standard gaming archetype or my specific take on a character like Lara Croft or Princess Zelda, albeit rather tongue in cheek. Lara's backpack was originally going to be collapsing under the weight of the unlikely arsenal that all combative game characters seem to be able to lug around. Zelda on the other hand is rather more blatantly sexualised than the anodyne character in the games. For some reason I posed her like Posh Spice, I should be ashamed!
Anyway, the magazine asked that they all be rendered seperately so they could choose how to compose them… not too well as it turned out, it made it a much bigger job and the money was crappy in the first place! Oh well…

Video Games- Gamer Grrls by Fegredo
Apologies if I swamp the blog with game posts, I have a bunch of stuff that really hasn't been seen much…. I may even do a fresh drawing!I used to be a regular reader of Edge magazine, my studio, along with art supplies, comics, art books etc also housed a complete run to date of the high brow gaming monthly. A shift in geography led to my listing the collection on Edge's forum as free to a good home, which in turn led to me being invited to provide illustrations to an article about women and their representation in gaming culture and the games themselves…. or something like that, I forget.
Anyway, heres my first not terribly specific sketch… more soon if you want it, probably even if you don't.
Video Games- FPS by Fegredo
FPS stands for, as every gamer knows, First Person Shooter. I started this canvas over 6 years ago in my old studio. After a couple of hours (if that), pleased with progress I downed brushes for a break on Halo… and for whatever reason it remained untouched until about a year back when I knocked out the background in white. I was on fire again, enthused, gripped by the desire to explain to the world what games meant to me, so much so I rinsed my brushes and fired up the xbox again. I'll finish it when I get to the next level...

I so wish this was a real game...
Will have some more game-art coming later this week, after taking care of this deadline.
Cheers,
Francesco
