Duffa Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Speaking of Miyazo ;) http://www.miyazo.com/welcome.html ^^ wow. just wow. In the series I posted above, Horistune talks about how important the background is, and how when a client comes to him with an idea its the first thing he thinks of. Well, I think he has passed on those ideals to Miyazo perfectly - every time I look at his backgrounds I could get lost for hours Zillah, Jake, Lochlan and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylegrey Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I'm more a fan of the traditional american look of a bunch of tattoos all over with probably stars and dots or that type of filler. I know this is the back piece thread ,but seeing Josh Arment's back in person and seeing Cory Lenherrs clients front demonstrates to me the power of this look .American badass with a Japanese vibe.

Scott R Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 @greg Hoggs duelling tigers and just the right amount of bare torso with covered arms is definetly a bad ass look. I doubt that was the goal ,But when in doubt its best to look bad ass lol hogg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrubarb Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Thanks! Is this the Black Widow spider on SOG's Facebook page? That's pretty sweet! All the pictures they were uploading while he was guesting there were impressive. Ben Grillo is awesome. Yup that is the one.

Those are tough as nails, too bad that guy looks like such a p*ssy (just kidding)!

Iwar Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I'm starting my backpiece with Stewart Robson tomorrow. Excited is an understatement :) Lucky you! What are you getting and how big are you going? Hope you'll share pictures with us along the way (if you and Stewart don't mind showing "in progress" work of course) Duffa and Lochlan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asradin Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I'm getting a tiger and panther circling each other and fighting. When he did a rough drawing on my back it filled up the space nicely so there might not be room for background. It's going from the top of my back/bottom of neck to half way down the back of my thighs hopefully. 4 hours of outlining tomorrow. Can't wait. Plus it will match all the stuff on my front that Stewart has done :D kylegrey and dari 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwar Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 That sounds fucking AWESOME @asradin!!! I'm jelous as hell, but I don't envy the pain you must suffer through. Jesus! I definitely prefer backpieces that goes all the way down to the back of your thighs, and that's what I'm also aiming to get some day. I'm not sure, but I think it was Stewart that at some point said that if you don't go down to the back of your thighs, what else are you going to get there that will look better, or something along those lines. Sorry if I accidentally misquoted you @Stewart Robson Plus it will match all the stuff on my front that Stewart has done :D Oh, please do share!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asradin Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 @Iwar I think you quoted him correctly. I'll get my girlfriend to take a good picture of my torso and I'll post it up on here in the appropriate thread. I think my back is going to be interesting but totally worth it.

Stewart Robson Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 @asradin: I guess I should finish drawing it instead of making posts on forums then.... Duffa and dari 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart Robson Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 @asradin touché! A pile of reference, thumbnails sketches and red wine later, I haven't ruled out that possibility.

asradin Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 @Stewart Robson I can't wait, only thing that sucks is doing a stupid shift at work until 9am tomorrow but I don't care.

asradin Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 So yesterday was interesting. By the time I started my back piece I'd been up for 30 hours working. But the lining is pretty much done. Here's the link to his blog: Panther vs Tiger in Progress – Stewart Robson The sparrows were a suggestion from @Stewart Robson and from the Amund Dietzel book and I think an excellent idea. Can't wait to get the lining finished and start on the shading :) Duffa, Dr Benway, Iwar and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffa Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 @asradin - man, what can I say? Thats fucking bad ass!! Speaking of ass, how was it down there? (*waits for the innuendo to start flying, but seriously didn't know what else to say/how to ask the question? haha) AND respect for sitting through that after 30 hours of being awake. One last question, how long was the session? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asradin Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 @Duffa It wasn't too bad, It feels really pinch to start with but after a few lines you get used to it and for me it started to tickle. The nastiest bits were by the kidneys and getting round to the ribs. Although I think my lack of sleep made the pain worse but it wasn't unbearable which is a good thing for me.
