Farewell To Frank by Loopydave

Watch Mature Content

Can't believe this is my 250th post! Woot!

Thought I'd mark the occasion with something 'purdy' so finally knuckled down to finishing a Frank Frazetta tribute painting piece I started many moons ago.

Based of the quick sketch [link] I did on the news of his passing some 2 years back, but this time I actually took the time to look at a book on animal anatomy

Pencil sketch, painted in photoshop.

excellent tribute. I miss him too. after seeing the woman leading Frazetta's "Dawn Attack", if she was invading the earth then I'wd join HER side.

Loopydave Featured By Owner Jul 17, 2018 Professional

Smart move... she's got the robots and spaceships to make your conquering plans succeed

Cheers.

i'd like to conquer but it's not the robots and spaceships i'm thinking about.

Thanks Adrian, very nice of you to say

topgun3 Featured By Owner Feb 25, 2016

LD, how long would this take you to complete in photoshop?

Loopydave Featured By Owner Feb 25, 2016 Professional

It was a while ago now, but I think it was about 4 days worth. Its painted quite large and some of the details are lost at this size, but I really do need to learn to paint quicker!

MANDO-AZ Featured By Owner Feb 8, 2016

awesome reminds me of classic frazetta

Loopydave Featured By Owner Feb 10, 2016 Professional

Thanks! Its my little tribute to the master!

MANDO-AZ Featured By Owner Feb 11, 2016

Frazetta and Gil Elvgren are the best it's true they definitely had an impact on me. if you have an art book coming out or already have one let me know i would absolutely buy it. you rock.

Loopydave Featured By Owner Feb 12, 2016 Professional

Thank you for the kind words... and as luck would have it I DO have a book of art out there. Think you can still buy it at
