Jason Momoa<\/a>, the reference for my Jesus sketch earlier. That sketch I started from scratch and only loosely used Momoa’s mug to touch up some details; it still didn’t come out great. Also, I sketched it on the Cintiq in Photoshop. This is also a quick sketch, but on Strathmore 9×12 with a Faber- Castell “B” Pitt Artist Pen Brush – and just that.

… if I keep drawing every day.<\/p>\n
