Nathaniel a.k.a John Mandrake as he appears in The Golem's Eye (more or less). Kind of a weird combination of Anime/western and painterly/cel shaded, but ... it looks okay, I guess.
And now, a bunch of stuff drawn in the margins of Flash and harvested for your enjoyment:
Jane Farrar - another Bartimaeus character, looking a lot like a Makani girl. Well ... she is.
Boy - some guy in an actiony expression.
A Hand - that's all there is to say.
Hedgehogs - trying to try anthropomorphic hedgehogs with more than one face. (one face each ... more than one way of drawing a face ... argh, sentence structure.)
Mr Shine - Him Diamond. Trolls in cloaks, how exciting. The non-cloaked one isn't him, that's just A Troll.
Phil again - Phil Schaeffer from Sweet Dreams again (actually this was the first one). Looked too much like Milo to bother adding pupils.
Tonkers - No, not like that. Tonker from Monstrous Regiment, drawn multiple times.
Wonses - a couple tries at Lupin Wonse from Guards! Guards! ... though the second one is an unintentionally accurate caricature of Jeeves.

Date: 2006-07-08 05:31 am (UTC)No, actually, it's pretty nice ... it's a lot more stylus-friendly than Photoshop 7 and it's vector-based so it's always crisp and pretty. Just be sure you draw with the brush and not the pencil; the pencil can do weird things.

Date: 2006-07-08 03:01 am (UTC)Anywho, they're both very confident-looking. Or the drawing is, I should say. Yay sentence structure.

Date: 2006-07-09 07:45 am (UTC)I also dig the hedgehogs! I can't imagine how you can bring yourself to draw another fudgehog ever again. Well, unless it's wearing a cool prop, like womans clothes.

And that's about the most clueless I've ever imagined Jeeves...

Date: 2006-07-08 10:10 pm (UTC)I like the hedgehog; its huge underbite is cute, gives it a goofy smile.
Gah!

It's quite good, actually ... it teeters on the edge of interest on my fantast-o-meter as far as crazy far out fantasy things go (impressive for something that doesn't even have dragons in it) but it starts off really good and each book in the trilogy gets better. It's all down to [drumroll] CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! You can get away with anything if you have well-developed characters.

Date: 2006-07-10 04:27 pm (UTC)But this series is really my sister's territory ... I'm just doodling around while it's fresh in my mind. I cede all 'official' illustration duties to her, or at least I will when she actually gets on it. AHEM.
