Gave drawing the bike another try, pencil first, then pentel brush pen. Lots of confusing engine stuff, but it sorta looks like my bike. The orange paint added to fool your eye into not looking too closely at the drawing.
That the front wheel is not a perfect circle but elliptical leaning right gives the illusion of movement at great speed. Orange perfect contrast as the bike seems roaring forward on fire too. "...fool your eye" - yep that's what it's all about with simple drawings ! Drawing quite a success, I'd say.

ReplyDeleteIt was sitting on a kick stand, but you're right that front wheel was leaning right… no fooling your eye is there :-)
