Taurus Protector

I really like the "Drawn with Lead 1911" digital painting I did last year, and Jess was telling me the other day that I should do some more guns in a similar fashion.  She also didn't hesitate to drop the Taurus Protector as a possible choice for my next gun painting as it's probably going to be my wife's first handgun.  So my love, this one's for you!!  I am so lucky to have a wife that supports my hobbies and my beliefs the way you do, I love you darl'n!!!

Just a girl and her tank!

I work with an interesting mix of military people and hard core gamers.  I wanted to make a PC desktop for my work station that reflected a bit of both sides.  One of my all time favorite arcade shooters is Metal Slug, so I was heavily inspired with the art from that game, leaning a bit more toward the Japanese art look for the character but going a bit more realistic with the tank.  Also the girl in this image is sporting a Glock 21...cause why not?

I have been keeping myself pretty busy as of late and trying to get my work a bit more out in the open.  If you would be so kind as to help me do this, you can follow me on Instagram @drawnwithlead as well as follow me on Facebook here:

So far I'm doing a lot of re-posts of older work while I am stocking up on some new pieces.  In the mean time I'm supplying a bit more information and back story to each piece I post up for those of you who may care to get a bit more about the "why's and when's" of each piece of artwork.

Thanks for all the support and please follow along on my creative adventures!
