tealinWhoo-ee, scans aplenty!
I went to life drawing on Thursday so there's nothing in my sketchbook for that day.
Friday's Sketchbook - some Filler Cats and an attempt at the Bandit Queen, who ended up looking a little like me, which is really ironic because there is probably not a more opposite character. (Except maybe Fifi the Frilly Fuschia Fairy.)
Saturday's Sketchbook - A rough sketch of the Bandit Queen, a study for the next page, some babies for a cunning plan of mine (which is not having babies; sorry, Dad) and a Bandit Queen head. TONY: The Bandit Queen is totally your kind of character! Please listen to the song and draw her, pleeeeeeeeeease? It's at 22:05 under the 'Listen' button here!
SUNDAY
Today doesn't technically count but I got nearly a week's worth of drawing done. Go fig.
Page One - They both go down together. (I am an evil, evil person for drawing this but ... I had to. The Decemberists play to my morbid streak!) Co-starring![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tulanoodle's dashing yet untrustworhty young man from a few days ago. And yes, it was the only thing on that page. Forgive the cropping; it's in your browser's best interest. ARGH I cannot draw pants/trousers. And it's not really something you can draw on the bus, y'know? Collecting faces is OK but collecting crotches and derrieres might raise some questions and possibly get me thrown off the bus, at the very least. I don't know anyone I'd feel comfortable asking to model for me, either. Haha, so far this is Reason #1 to get a boyfriend, but I don't know if it's quite worth all the trouble. O! I am a nasty spinster.
Page Two - Netspeak Man and Emoticon Woman. This was something I'd doodled in my sister's sketchbook a while ago and developed a very very little bit today. Not my usual style. I am not good at flat and graphic.
Page Three - My sister and I watched El Dorado this afternoon (say what you like about the movie, it always makes me want to animate) and then the making-of thing to see the 'It's Tough to be a God' recording session which is hilarious, and Bonnie Radford's face triggered the caricature switch in my head. I don't know how close I got because I didn't pause her, just worked from memory. Heheh, I wonder what this does to my chances of getting a job at her studio... Also, I love crows. Aaaand... a Milo-ish Harry-ish guy with glasses, for no reason at all.
Page Four - More Bandit Queen sketches, rapidly dissolving into No Drawing Skill Whatsoever, whereupon I stopped.
