Illustration Friday-Tango

Update: I've finished the full color version and I think it turned out decent. Check it out!!!


Well, it's been a long time, but I decided to participate in Illustration Friday this week. The topic was "Tango". But instead of drawing a couple dancing the Tango, the first thing I thought of was Dave Tango from SyFy channel's Ghost Hunters. So I did this illustration of Steve Gonsalves (left) and Dave Tango (Right) hunting some ghosts.


This isn't quite finished, as I need to ad color, but I wanted to put something up before the topic changed. Comments Welcome.

Hi Seth! Thank you so much for your recent addition to my blog..I greatly appreciate your kind words and the helpful links that you sent! This is super, and exactly what I needed. Thank you again..

also, your colorized version of tango turned out wonderfully - great palette (colors are tricky for me so knowing what and how many colors to work with is something I look at a lot in other people's work).

Your website is great too - clean and easy to maneuver. I think your style does come through - it'll be good to check in and see how the jobs come through for you. I will be practicing, practicing, practicing a lot..thanks again for your help!
