As some of you know , I am a artist who does mostly comic book work. Well, since I'm also a musician I decided to take my skills in another direction and that is to go ahead and try to do portraits of some of Rock and Blue's , most classic musicians and see if maybe I can possibly try to get either prints made or sell them to magazines. Here is one I did recently of Keith Richards. I would like to know what you guys think of it. Thanks.

Looks good! Reminds me a little of something you'd see in the old Rock 'n' Roll Comics from back in the '90s.

Keep up the good work!

The guitar looks under-scale and seems to resemble a ukulele.

Thanks everybody for the compliments. Here is a new one I just completed several minutes ago. Been working on it since I got up this morning. It's B.B. King back in his younger days. Oh, Retroverbial by the way, not to start anything but, guitars are not exactly the easiest thing in the world to draw, whether you have photo reference or not. Just saying.

Fun looking pictures, but the only one I recognized was Rick Wakeman, and he's not dead.

Not trying to be unduly critical, but I didn't recognize either Keith or B.B. You did ask.
The artistry is way beyond anything I could ever do, just don't see a significant likeness.
