Sad Sack of Circuitry



Also part of my "Sketchbook Series" that I have been posting.

This lonely little fella was so sad and heartbroken, he KERRRAAASSSHHHEEDD his space car into a distant, forgotten moon just to get away. Of course, we can't hear (and thereby read) what our robot is saying, but I'm assuming it's Morrissey.

Sketchbook Series



Recently, I've been sketching more from photographs to later translate into my comics work. It's been helping with my anatomy, draping of fabric and also helping to achieve more natural poses. I've turned to Sports Illustrated, wildlife books, the sports section of the local paper and would like to start drawing from books on WWII and National Geographic magazines. Since I am just getting back into this, I've been going for more "complete" drawings rather than giving myself time limits of 10 or 30 seconds or 1 or 2 minutes to do a sketch. I think I'll start working on those sketches as well to improve the fluid movements of my characters. But look how scared that long jumper is of that mountain lion!

Sketchbook Series



This is another piece done during the 'Tuff Teef' Saga of 2005. I drew my teeth as wimps, finally giving in to the build-up of pressure and bursting into fireworks of pain. I like this sketch, and toyed with the idea of using it as a promo piece of sorts, but never got around to it.
