I recently found a couple of my dad's sketchbooks (he died nine years ago of cancer) so I wanted to share some of his sketches with everyone.

Taken with my camera since I didn't want to rip the pages out and scan them.
Sorry about your dad man.
Also, those drawings are really good.
:h: for your dad..
I like those drawings though, he was good.
Those were really cool
cool, stylized drawings man, genuinely good
Does he live in the 70's?

He doesnt live, which is sad.
Nice! Your dad had some serious skills. :)
God bless your Dad. He was a very talented artist.
[QUOTE=shadow_of_intent;24584532]He doesnt live, which is sad.[/QUOTE]
I should have, sorry about that. :(
The drawings looks very nice, may your father rest in peace.
For some reason this made me feel very emotional, almost brought tears to my eyes. May your father rest in peace :unsmith:
so, do you draw? maybe you take after him and have a steady hand with a pen. i bet that would make him proud.
Kind of strange but I can tell they are great.
Even though for me they are just organized patters of pixels lit up by a cheap light bulb behind a piece of plastic, these are beautiful. I feel these.
The drummer one is my favorite. I also like the guy holding the telephoto haha. Your father definitely had style.
Your dad obviously had photographic interests as well. If so, do you have any of his photo work laying around?

I do, but very rarely these days.

I believe so, unfortunately, I don't know which photos were actually taken by him. If I find a folder of his work or anything, maybe I'll upload some of it.
Thanks for the kind words everyone.
Amazing stuff, your dad was talented. :h:
Here comes the douche bag.
While the works are very nice, they are not your own. This goes against the rules of this sub-forum which specifically state not to post other people's work. Your father was a good artist so I encourage you fully to try after an artistic life style as well.
I forgot about that rule, well here's one of my pieces anyway.

Just what it reminded me of... Also sorry about your father.

Not bad, looks like a bit of drawing runs in the family. :buddy:

I dont see a problem with it. They are really good, and its not like they were stolen. Its specifically stated they are the fathers.
Leave it unless Dai or Perfumly says to take it down. They are awesome.
I think the rule with only posting your own art is to avoid copyright infrigement.
I'm fairly certain an exception for this can be made. Those are nice sketches and a nice way to rekindle the memory of your father. Sorry for your loss.
He did some great pen work!
I'm glad you were able to find his sketchbooks, you can find out a lot about a person from their art.
The man had skills.
They all have a lot of really interesting character to them, really neat find.
