Good Grief, It's December

[tealin]

Yes, believe it or not, I actually drew in my sketchbook last night. I'm trying to finish it off by the end of the year so I held myself at metaphorical knifepoint yesterday until I'd filled four pages ... mostly rubbish, of course, but there were a couple worthwhile doodles. The one above happened when I asked my sister what to draw, and she said 'a penguin pirate.' It was only at her insistance that I added the pantaloons, which I now think are the best part.


A scalbie ... probably too cute. I like corvids, dangit.


Brutha in the desert ... there's a smiling sun with sunglasses included in that drawing but I cut it out. Might add it back in. I can't help feeling I've drawn someone else in this exact attitude before...


Inspired by some responses to my post yesterday. Sorry for butchering your Lucius, Makani ... the only reference I had at the time was that post-drunken-party picture which I found felicitously wedged in my sketchbook last night.

You just can't make this stuff up ... well, okay, maybe you can.

There's got to be a gag in there involving Rocky vs the Dirty Commie Rodents...

Well, there are so many times that I want to rip up my sketchbook and throw it in chunks out the window...

So, seeing that you have troubles with things sometimes would bring a very big smile to my face and remind me that even the best artists have oodles of troubles. Even Disney people have trouble, but you never see they're mistakes...so it seems like they are perfect.

If you didn't scan it don't worry about it...I figured you cropped it in Adobe Photoshop or something...
