Six Nations – friendly rivals
Hello! The 2015 Six Nations Rugby Union tournament got off to a great start last weekend. It’s so good to get my pens out to draw some sport and get moving again after winter. I looked at my post from drawing these matches in 2013 and discovered I feel exactly the same, ie ‘very rusty and challenged to high heaven to keep up!’ Today’s matches begin shortly, so just time to publish before the fireworks start! Phew! Here are my drawings:
France vs Scotland: Battling!
Italy vs Ireland: Rolling maul!
Italy vs Ireland: Man down!
France vs Scotland: So close to the line!
Wales vs England: Scrum down!
Wales vs England: Tackle that man!
Great images – do you do them from the telly?
