Pyramids

I've been rereading Pyramids (An excellent Discworld book to start with, if anyone's interested ... I know this is a perennial topic) and doodled up a quick sketch of Endos, the Listener:
Endos

He listens.

Proportions = GERBLEH. But considering the bad drawing rut I've been in for a week and a half, it's not terrible.

It's hard to go back to a tablet after getting used to the Cintiq ... Oh, the perils of the trade. This is the first drawing I've posted in here done in OpenCanvas!*

While on the topic of Pyramids, I have come to the decision that David Krumholtz is THE person to play Teppic. It's so glaringly obvious that my roommate and I have taken to calling Numb3rs 'The Teppic Show.' HE IS SO TEPPIC.

*Isn't that spiffy? It's a lot better for drawing in than Photoshop... unfortunately, it doesn't get along well with the Cintiq. Well, I say 'unfortunately' ... If it did work, I wouldn't get much work done at work. So I guess it's 'fortunately' in the long run. For me, anyway. And the production. We got a program from Alias called Sketchbook, which is like OpenCanvas on steroids ... it's very nice, but it also doesn't get along with my Cintiq, though I suspect this is because of my compy's prior calibration to run with two monitors. Ramble, ramble, ramble. You read footnotes at your own risk, you know.

Wow, I just started Pyramids earlier today! Funny you should be posting about it. However, I'm just reading the series straight through. I figure it's as good a way as any.

(Very Random Side Note: So far Magrat is my favorite character, but I love all the witches. I would love to see you draw her/them.)

Oh, I like that. He has such a nice, sympathetic expression, really does make me feel like I could just tell him whatever's bothering me and I'll feel better.

(I'm probably one of many, many people who sort of stumbled across your art one day and was more enchanted by it than I've ever been by any other Discworld fanart, so I sort of ... wandered over here, despite the fact that I don't usually follow the journals of people I don't know.)

*G* I love the ears.

I adore David Krumholtz and the idea of him as Teppic amuses me far more than it should.

But why is there going to be a third Santa Clause movie?

why?

the same as everything else: to make $$$

Santa Clause/ David Krumholtz/ Endos

I have no idea who the drawing is of, but it's still nice. Sure, proportions are off a bit, but, I probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't mentioned it. Except the ears, but I'm sure that they were intentionally huge...

I don't know who David Krumholtz is, either.

Er, where did the Santa Clause 3 come from? I loved the first one, and enjoyed the second one. But then again I'm one of those people that enjoys movies that most people aren't fond of. And vice versa.

Good I love it

Good job. I love the ears. C(..)C
I apologize for the lack of e-mails and the improper lack of being formal I am trying. BTW I started with the Light Fantastic.

I like the look of that fella, especially with his glass of wine there. Very suave for a man wearing a toga and the FA Cup.

I started with the Colour of Magic, read by Tony Robinson. Then I read it myself for the full version. He has a wonderful voice, so suited to Rincewind.

Oooo! That's Bernard! He's cool!

*cough* Yeah. Anyway, that would indeed make a very good Teppic. *nods*

It's been a while since I last read Pyramids, and I've completely forgotten who Endos is.. should I be ashamed?
