Fashion Illustration: Tinie Tempah & Lewis Hamilton

Besides His Royal Highness Sir Lord David Beckham OBE, Tinie Tempah is most definitely thee most stylish man on British soil right no - encompassing everything unique, edgy and urban about Brit (of the Londoner variety in particz) fashion.

SO when I decided it was time to dabble in my first men's fashion illustration he was my go-to guy. AND THEN I stumbled upon the picture of a super sleek looking Tinie with an uber urban looking Lewis Hamilton and I was all smitten and inspired and totally not prepared for the stress and frustration that comes with trying to draw men.

The "creative" process...

And the workspace I make sure to keep as bright and inspiring as possible <3

 Overall I'm quite happy with how this piece turned out (post-shading in half of Lewis' face as pre-shading he was a ringer for Lord Voldemort in a Ray-Ban ad. #stillworkingonmynosedrawingskills) - although I am 99.9995% sure I'm going to add in a background of some colourful sort just to give it a little more character.

I'm also now on the hunt for more mens looks to re-create so if you have any suggestions I would love to hear them!

Kind regards, 

xoxo
