Sketchwork – Top Gun Maverick

Posted on by Simon in Art Work, Blog, Sketching

Here’s a lok at my latest sketcwork, taken from the Top Gun Maverick movie poser I saw it and it was to me this brilliant blend of old and new, a now much older Maverick looking up at the twin fighters from a P51 Mustang. I (for some reason) had to draw it… So I did.

I came up with this, even though it’s in pencil I’ve tried to capture shadows, reflections, the form and the person down to the creases in his t-shirt.

I even created a small video, showing off the last stages of the drawing.

I hope you like it – let me know what you think.

My name is Simon I'm an engineer, creator, free thinker and occasionally writer. For far too long I had ideas and nowhere to put them for the world to see, that's why Planet Simon was created. I'm an experimenter, explorer and fascinated by the world around me and the people in it. My exploration goes further than the known universe and expands out to universe's I've created in my mind and put onto the creative canvas. I'm not the person I used to be and over time I have evolved and the blog is evolving with me. Whatever this blog is in the future it's a place where all are welcome and ideas can roam free to find their magical place in the universe.

  4. I think that pencil sketch is awesome!! I wish I had talent like that, alas all I can do is use crayons…….to help the stupid people in other department understand how to use grant funds…ugh.
    I saw that movie this past weekend and although I was totally prepared for it to crash and burn (no pun intended) because I’m not a huge Tom Cruise fan. I was pleasantly surprised by it.
