Brandon Roy

Here is a sketch I did of basketball player Brandon Roy. He plays for the Portland Trailblazers and was Rookie of the Year a couple years ago. I really like his game and enjoyed sketching his face. I've attached a few pics to show you how I got to my final sketch


I tried to scan this into my computer but my scanner was acting crazy. This is a picture I took with my digital camera of a couple thumbnail sketches I did in my sketchbook.


Finally got my scanner to work and this is the scanned sketch. Had to play around with the "curves" in Photoshop to get it to look decent.
Here's the final sketch. I made quite a few adjustments in Photoshop. I often have problems with my drawings being lopsided so I flip the image horizontally in Photoshop to try and correct it as much as I can. Not sure how to connect the body just yet but I'm thinking of painting this one.
