Elwood, Waterfall

I've been sitting in at the Degree Show most of this week, and spending a good bit of that time in my sketchbook. Went to the art shop in the college today and bought some new markers and broke them in on this sketch I did yesterday.

Geri

A little something for One Million Giraffes. Do check it out and consider constributing!

Animation

Sitting on a couch watching a DVD felt like a waste of time, so I had to do something. Ended up scribbling all the main characters from my year's animated films. All sketched from memory except Arron's and Damian's characters which I had to have a peek at online. I don't want to see any original art now for fear of seeing all the mistakes I've made...

El Family

I got thinking about Elwood and the his siblings and before I knew it I was drawing this. Drawn with a brush pen and grey markers. It's amazing how fast this appeared on the piece of paper in front of me at this time in the morning after a few glasses of wine...

Wouldn't mind turning this into a complete piece in the future. I'm also looking forward to exploring Elwood's two other sisters and his mum in the strip...

Fornax

Mostly marker pens and a touch of coloured pencil. This is the second character from a work in progress who'll be starring in his own animated short for my course.

Markers

I'm too tired and frustrated to draw anything properly, so this sketch is pretty wonky. I just wanted to give the markers I bought today a quick test. I shall need to get some more for a better tonal range, defo' some darker ones. (I'd bought a black but I returned it because it was already used to the point of depletion.)

(This a character for a comic idea I've had on the back burner for a while.)
