In Sketchbook Trawlin, I go through my old sketchbooks stretching right back to childhood and share anything interesting I find.
I never throw a sketchbook away, so there's a lot of material to get through. This comes from a book circa 2010-11.
Dr Sketchys Life Drawing presents some great opportunities to practice unusual poses and elaborate costumes. On this day however, I decided to focus on the ass. Gotta say, I think I did a good job.
Life Drawing, think I really captured the curve of the spine
Think I was having my first go at an anime style, no idea what it is shes holding in her hand....some for m of stethoscope I think?
Eye render - the eye is a bloody hard thing to draw, I remember really focusing on all the shadowing and the darkness around the edge of the iris down
Costume ideas for a kind of tough biker character - because wouldn't you too quake in fear if you were approached by someone dressed as the WWEs undertaker?
A goofy one to go out on - character faces - this was me trying to balance toughness and cartooniness and achieving something more akin to complete dopiness. The one on the upper right looks like Abe Lincoln starring in Grease.....Id actually watch that.
Thank you for checking these out, Ill be doing this pretty regularly I think, as I said, there's a lot, please let me know what you think!
