This illustration was done for Illustration Friday challenge this week; ‘Neighbor’.

It’s a little removed, i think, but I have been looking for an excuse to do this illustration. It has been worming around in my head for a couple of weeks.

Click the above to see a bit of my process.

lets also not forget that Veteran astronaut Walter Schirra of “mercury Seven” fame, died on Thursday at the age of 84. He was one of the first manned US space flights. Thank you.

    Holy sh%t that’s good.
    Beautiful clean linework, difficult perspective that you nailed and the desaturated colours pause the thoughtful moment.
    Consider this blog bookmarked!
