Frank Zappa #10

This is frank zappa the rock star who named his son moon unit
can't get a better personality than that
i freakin amazed myself with this one
the style for this and spawlding were to first do a regular shaded pencil drawing for values then cover it with airbrush for color then sharpen it up with colored pencils and finally paint in the whites and the blacks
so it really crosses all the boundaries and it goes suprisingly quickly

it came out awesome
ever heard of watercolor-color pencils? its like doing the drawing in colored pencils then going over it with water color and like painting it.

Subject: Frank Zappa #10 Sat Apr 26, 2008 4:07 pm

Subject: Frank Zappa #10 Sun Apr 27, 2008 6:46 pm

his band is Frank Zappa

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Mon Apr 28, 2008 10:54 pm

Frank Zappa plays guitar as well as sings. He doesn't have a set band, but toured with The Mothers of Invention most of the time. The first statement made about him is actually incorrect his son was named Dweezle and his daughter's name was Moon Unit. The guy is a freaking legend.

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Tue Apr 29, 2008 9:10 am

Hell yes. More people need to know about him.

And most people forget about his daughter Diva Muffin and son Ahmet XD

Damnit now I want to listen to some Zappa.

Thing-fish is calling me.

Check this out, Frank Zappa vs. Steve Via. Two of the greatest guitar players in the world going head to head. Guitar duel

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Wed Apr 30, 2008 10:20 am

YES! I love that video. 'tis quite possibly one of the best things ever.

Speaking of guitar battles, have you seen all of Crossroads?

Subject: Frank Zappa #10 Wed Apr 30, 2008 5:24 pm

i hate to say it but steve vai and zappa are definatly NOT the best guitarist the best are definatly jimmy paige and santana

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Wed Apr 30, 2008 8:43 pm

Yes I have seen Crossroads, that movie is awesome! I would tend to agree that they are not the best, if they were I would have said they were. I specifically stated and I quote "two of the greatest." Besides you are wrong too, the best guitar player ever is obviously Hendrix. Just imagine what the world would be like if he hadn't died...

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Sun May 04, 2008 8:37 am

All this fighting why do you guys do this two yourselves. Another couple of people at the top are definitely Herman Lee and Joel Stroetzel from Kill Switch Engage

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Wed May 07, 2008 12:07 am

Don't forget John Petrucci, Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Alex Lifeson, Eddie Van Halen, and many many more.

Subject: Re: Frank Zappa #10 Sun Jun 22, 2008 11:53 pm

*laughs* Ok, guitars rule.

...It's still all about the drums though XD
