Why does this work for Illustration Friday‘s “old-fashioned” topic, you ask? A few reasons.
- It’s not quite my newest work.
- It’s got an old-school feel to ‘er.
- We’re 4 weeks into the college football season, where kids hand out good old-fashioned beatings to other kids.
Seemed like a natural fit to me!
Very nice… I really love the grass!
Thanks Heather!
I like the aged texture along with the flat figure. It works together well.
Thanks Kevin!
You’ve certainly convinced me it’s the perfect fit for the topic! Nice illo.
Haha… yeah, well, if it’s not obvious, some people get all up in arms! Thx for the comment!
I love the pose! This one’s a really good illustration 🙂
Thx Melissa!
Love your drawing Christian, the old crackly like wear over the top is awesome.. photoshop filter? We’ve just finished our Hockey field season, so the beatings have finally finished.. yay! lol And thanks for your comment on mine too 🙂
Thanks Sandy…. It’s actually just a textured layer with a blend mode applied. Glad you made it thru the field hockey season in one piece! 🙂
Old fashioned is all about how you view it! This has a very interesting “cut-out” feel to it. I really love this style. You are very talented, I look forward to seeing more of your work!
Thx Rachel!

This is fantastic! Love the retro feel. The grass texture is awesome, as is the curved horizon. And the flash photography! Nice touch!
