Week 6

Sketchbook Index

7-20-07: On the left, that's probably my best crosshatching job so far. I've hardly crosshatched (or just simply "hatched?") at all in my life until I started this sketchbook, and now I can't stop. The sketch of the girl was based on someone's LiveJournal photo. Eventually it evolved to not look much like the person in question.
7-19-07: The guy on the right has a tube full of eyeballs surrounding his head. Some of the detail got lost during the scanning process.
7-18-07: I drew this after watching a string of movies involving troubled spacemen including Solaris, Event Horizon, Mission to Mars, and Red Planet. Each of those movies got trashed by the critics but I'm going to go ahead and embarrass myself and admit that I really liked them. The subject matter of this drawing is a throwback to the drawings of my adolescence. Unfortunately, so is the quality.
7-17-07: My first comic drawn on paper! And it sucks! Check out the teeny-tiny tyrannosaurus rex arms I gave myself in the first panel. In the second panel I made myself way taller than I actually am. Oh, and I accidentally made my co-worker extremely gayish. The third panel isn't too horrible, but I'm cupping the remote control really oddly instead of holding it like a normal human. And in the final panel, I have the thought bubble covering up my wife so that she just looks like a lump of I don't know what. I like the premise of this comic but the art is just inexcusable.
7-16-07: Monocles, fancy gloves, fancy shoes: recurring themes in my drawing.
