Much of my ink/watercolor is inspired by john baizley. If you haven't looked at his work, do it and you'll realize how masterful he is. Mine is a bit more "realistic" in the sense that it's a little less illustrative, but I wouldn't be doing this if he wasn't. Props.

Look in my gallery for detail shots i've posted.


EDIT: HOLY SHIT A DD. THANKS GUYS!!!!
