Bloom 06-Gianfranco Randone by IrishRoulette

Bloom 06-Gianfranco Randone

Description

Agh, I've been working on this for the past 5 days, which is a long time for me. I've just had so much on my mind what with getting my license, driving on my own (it's still scary for me) and finals that I haven't had much artistic inspiration. But I really like how this picture of Jeffrey Jey, the singer of Eiffel 65 and Bloom 06 turned out. His real name is Gianfranco Randone but took the name Jeffrey because apparently that's what one of his American friends called him. I don't know the full story, but whatever. I tried to make this look like it could be found in the Bloom 06 CD booklet, very serious and cool. It's also more realistic than my typical drawings, mainly in the ears and the fact that behind those glasses, his eyes are smaller.

Wow. This is fantastic! You really put a lot of time and effort into this! The shading rules as usual and so do the glasses! FAVE!!!

Danke! Yes, Jeffrey Jey is another of those select few guys who looks good in those kinds of sunglasses. Check him out on YouTube by doing a search for "Bloom 06 Per Sempre." He looks great in that video.

It didn't take me 5 days total time, that's over 100 hours. I usually don't have the ability to just sit down and work on a pic from start to finish. Now that you mention it, though, he does look like a bodyguard or something. *Ponders* Thanks for the comment!
