Draft Sketch Of The Grim Reaper

Second pencil sketch of the grim reaper.

The Grim Reaper Sketch

The grim reaper is one of them iconic creations that is the main image of death usually and one that doesn't often change that much through the ages.

A dark robed figure with a skeletal appearance and a scythe for the reaping of the souls of the soon to be dead.

I make this sketch quite rough at first, so as to change it later on and at this stage we can change anything that we don't like, so don't worry too much about how it looks in the beginning.

Inked Pen Drawing Of The Grim Reaper

Final inked drawing of the grim reaper.

 Darkening the lines to your grim reaper works alot better here and the line art looks quite good against the white background.

I like to think of an inked drawing as a chance to make the reaper character solid and more darker as a grim reaper should be.

Shaded Reaper Sketch

Final shading touches to your grim reaper should bring it to an undead life.

Shading The Reaper

Shading is the compliment to the inking stage as it deepens the drawing with depth and tone, I like adding tone and even colour to my drawings, you however can do whatever you want with your reaper drawing.

Shading helps to darken areas to seperate them from other parts.
