Hey guys!

My name is James Ball, I’m an illustrator from the UK and a new member to the group!

I thought I’d share my Omega Constellation Illustration I did a while back!

I hope you all like it!

 

Welcome & very well done!

I particularly like the patina.

 

Welcome TheWatchArtist!
Wow, well done! That would make a great profile picture for yourself!
Best,
Stephan

 

I bet that this is the sunburst effect (&shadow), not patina, though.

 

Nice drawing! Here's the non-date version I drew with light.

 

Thank you! That’s a stunning piece!

 

Aren't the fonts wrong?

 

Dibs

 

It was either that or 'it's a redial'.

 

I went with the less is more philosophy.

 

Lume without T? Serial 20 mil?

 

It's a cal. 551, serial 19 980 xxx. What does it imply?
Major thread drift....

 

Looks great. Mine says hello.

 

Come on at least draw an unpolished case lug too soft

 

Nice drawing! I was just thinking of looking and if not posting a thread on what watch enthusiasts have in their home that is watch art display related.

 

I saw this guy's illustration of a Speedy in a Facebook Speedmaster group and I must say that I'm pretty much blown away!

 

My real watch (on the right side) says hello to yours

Fantastic, very clever

 

Curious if there are any issues with Omega when doing something like this? I recall someone on a forum once "designing" a tee shirt around a Rolex model, and they were quickly shut down. I don't think Omega is as aggressive as Rolex in this regard, but I do wonder if there's some sort of exemption due to it being "art" or if there could be legal issues, since Omega does monitor the forums...

 

Great sketch, good job, like it. I saw a speedmaster sketch a while back that at first glance looked good but then I saw it had mixed a lot of parts, a franken

Well of you start to mass produce I would guess they would be hunting you down. But making a unique copy of a watch seems just fine. however, no expert just speculating.
