I’ve been meaning to do a new self portrait/promotion piece for a while now. I really like the one I did for my pod-cast a few years ago but it shows me wearing a pair of headphones and talking into a headset mic. It worked great for the pod-cast but when I use it for other things people wonder whats up with the whole headset thing.
So last week I busted out the old sketchbook and started working on a new one. Once I had a sketch I liked I dragged it into Illustrator to clean up the line art. I use CS4. It’s a great program and you can’t beat the brush tool for nice clean lines and strokes.
Here’s what I’ve got so far. I’ll probably end up cropping in a little tighter on the portrait part of the drawing but so far I kind of like what’s going on here. What do you think?
Do you have self promo piece you’d like to share? If so pop up a link in the comment space below. I’d love to see what you’re up to. I’ll feature a few of the best ones in a future article so don’t be shy.
