Whole Buncha Sketchbook

[tealin]

Um, yes, so I've been working ... hence the lack of posts or anything interesting* to be posting about. Here, then, are my sketchbook offerings for the last few days:

Monday - Angua, who benefited from my wee-hour research into Renée Zellweger, who has the kind of eyes I was going for. I forgot I had only done her on the page by the end of the day Monday (Distracted by getting a job) so had to make up for it on...
Tuesday - ... when I went to the museum and draw some African stuff, mostly from the Sudan but also from ... Gambia? Gabon? Ghana? Some place starting with a G. Unfortunately most of the really cool anthropological display cases are off limits right now due to 'museum renewal' or some such thingermajig.
Wednesday - Having spent the day rotating an evil lizard creature, I thought I'd try my freshly-exercised-yet-still-quite-sore-from-the-atrophy-and-sudden-use design muscles on a Redwall chracater, the classic test to see if I've become any less boring. Um ... no. Also an attempt at making my ancient fish dude slightly less 'whelpish.' Also no.
TODAY - Went on another café drawing trip, this time to Ye Sketchcrawl Café (not actually the name) where the original group of sketchcrawlers warmed up on that cold November all those years ago.** It's past 1 so I'm not going to narrate them, you will be left to make up your own stories! 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10

*When unemployed and a hermit, incredibly mundane things become interesting. Fact.
**I am too lazy to look up the post ... I think it was in November 2004.

I really like Angua's new eyes - They are very much Zellwegers. Yay! The oldest creature in the world makes a comeback! Love how the woman walking with the coffee notices the pigeon but not how much she looks like a pigeon. That old guy with the beard and the hat... is from your imagination and not the cafe, right? Like the bearded guy in 15d. I'm not too good at drawing bearded guys. Love the hair on the woman in the bottom right corner of 15f (wish I could get my hair like that but my fringe is too short). Am playing softball now so that I look more like the girl at the top left corner of 15h and less like the woman (I hope it's a woman) center right of the same drawing. Like your superhero-robot and your swimming pose.

I absolutely love the muscley guy on page 7. Especially his arms. Looks very real.

It would seem a number of druids/wizards frequent Þe Sketchcrawl Café.
