A Bluer, Happy You!

I used a blue colored pencil to see what kind of look a sketch would have.  I picked a happier photo, cause franklly, my lastest sketches have been mean or sad-looking faces.  Anyway, I thought it was a pretty decent 20 min sketch.

My Buddy Ken

 

  

A couple of different shot of my sketch of my Buddy Ken.  This photo was just begging to be drawn.  Anyway, a pencil, sketchbook and about 20 minutes later...He said he liked it, I hope so.  LOL

Hulkin' out Self Portrait

 

Another 20-minute sketch.  Me all angry and stuff.  I don't think the left eye is right...and the face seems a bit thin.  I will have to work on that.

Self Portrait Sketch

 

Here is a 20-minute self-portrait sketch in pencil.  Seems to be a pretty close likeness...What do you think?

New Luke Skywalker Lineart

Here is a sketch and the line art from the sketch. I think I might try inking this with the computer before I start with markers. I have to say, I love the sketch so much more that the line art, but I think that is because the sketch has some shading and the line art has nothing but...possibility. I am stretching...growing...I hope... LOL

More Star Wars Universe!

A couple of more sketches of the Dymanic Duo of the Star Wars U. Han Solo, inked. and Luke Skywalker from Return of the Jedi. Not comfortable with the inks yet, I am still in a "feeling out" period. But I was pretty pleased with the first effort on the Han Solo sketch.

Luke Skywalker

My sketch of Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker. Took about 45 minutes and done with a #2 pencil.

"You scruffy-looking...nerfherder!"

Pencil sketch of Han Solo. I like it for the most part, but the eyes seem a bit...big and the it just makes him look unnatural and zombie-like...I like the way the hair turned out though... :)

Obi-Wan Sketches

Here are a couple of sketches of Alex Guinness as Obi-Wan Kenobi. The shape of the skulls are quite right, but I am working on it. I am just trying to get pen/pencil to paper these days and working on getting recognizable figures.

Back from Comic-Con and getting my feet under me

Okay, so I drew my first actual sketchcard. I bought a pack of card stock and I am going to start working on them. I put this one of Leia as Boushh on eBay and we will see if any one thinks it is worth anything. LOL

Wonder Woman Commission

This was a commission for a friend.

Sketch of Mt Shasta

We rolled into Weed, Ca on our way to the Tri-Cities in Washington state and we stayed the night, Weed is a cool little town, and by little and mean little. But it has one of the best Burger cafe's I have ever eaten at and for the life of me, I can't remember the name...damn. Anyway, the sun was going down adn I took a few minutes to do a sketch of Mt. Shasta.

Wonder Woman Birthday Commission

This is a commission I did for my friend Marie (Happy Birthday!) at the request of her husband Kenny. I hope she likes it. :)

Black Vulcan Sketch

I have never seen Black Vulcan, I have never drawn Black Vulcan...Heck as far as I can tell he was only on a couple of episodes of SuperFriends back in the day... Anyway, a friend wanted a sketch, so I did the best I could.... I think he liked it. :)

Darth Maul Commission

This is a commission that I did this afternoon. It is for a little boy's birthday and his favorite Star Wars character is Darth Maul. I hope he likes it.

another sketch - Juggernaut

Juggernaut sketch. The bristol paper I use doesn't fit perfectly on my scanner, and I end up with these ugly blue areas on the scan. Other than that, I really enjoyed this sketch. I can't wait to ink it up.

Some new sketches

A sketch of Phoenix that I did the line work on, I haven't finished inking it, cause I am worried that I am going to ruin it...I gotta get over that.

Spider-Man sketch

Quick sketch of Spider-man, foreshortening was kinda tricky.

Life after class.

Well class is done and I have to figure out what I am going to do with myself. Starting to do some drawings on my own. Lou Ferrigno as the Hulk.

Great night last night

What a great night last night. We usually start with a series of 90 sec sketches to loosen up. Last night we did something different. The model would take a step, and hold it for about 60 sec and then make another movement. He started on the floor and stepped onto the stage and off again. It was kind of frustrating at first until I found my subject. His feet and legs. I just drew the feet and legs and nothing else. I didn't even actually draw the stage but I drew him on and off of it. I think it turned out quite well.

The next pose was about 40 min and this one really came together well. I feel good about the proportions and the face and to overall feeling of the piece. Soemtimes, when you actually draw a face on a life drawing if feels that you need to alot too much time to the face and it looks out of sorts with the quality of the rest of the drawing. Not this time, this seems to mesh very well.
