Part two: week one
Still going to keep using this paper, but I kinda liked the accidental composition, so here's at look at how it's going so far
BOY OH BOY this was a "decision" I made, and lemme tell ya, this was not an easy sketch for me.
Hoodies: banned forever.
Headphones: on thin ice.
Pros: getting a little less slow with my drawings
Cons: hoodies don't show up great in black/white photos, should try to remember to remove it next time
Nose mojo is taking some time to come back, but I'm feeling pretty good about this one. Maybe more stupid face poses need to happen in the future.
Pros: think I'm settling into a mouth style that I like, have always liked how my hair turns out
Cons: noses have been turning out funky, used to like how they were turning out but not so much now, eyes always look... haunted?
Pros: feeling pretty good about how my chin and mouth came out
Cons: managed to make myself cross eyed, and what is going on with the shape of my nose??
Fuck it, here I go again
Maybe. We'll see.....
(But why do my two sketches, done in the same sitting, look like that?? We got one little square-headed and one large oval-headed motherfucker one after the other.)
This place is so cool sometimes. Where else can I see someone post some great looking comic panels, grab the book from my local library, post about it on my page, then have the actual author reblog my art and say nice things about it??
I was messaging a new buddy of mine and she made me think of this panel of the supportive voice of reason, Gin, of "M is for Monster." (Great new graphic novel by Talia Dutton @supertaliart, check it out.) So this is my reminder to everyone that your scars are kick-ass, beautiful, handsome, and dashing, and if you're not there in your journey yet than I hope that one day you will be able to view them as such.

So I have gwitch brainrot and spent a good portion of my night painstakingly drawing this on my phone. Well, tracing more than drawing really, but I'm actually quite happy with how I've done. So here's me posting immediately after finishing before I lose my nerve
Had a rare moment of inspiration+motivation while rereading Girls With Slingshots for the nth time and was able to seize it. Tried my hand at some quick attempts to draw myself in @dcorsetto’s style (plus a random doodle while talking on the phone, guess which one). Anyone familiar with the comic might be able to tell when I was drawing inspiration from Zach versus Jameson (plus a bit of Tucker, but not as much).
I'm kind of liking this medium. I've actually been playing around with it for about a week now. If I knew anything at all about drawing programs online or drawing tablets or anything I might be tempted to invest further in this type of work...
Anywho, this is inspired by the Jelly Cam from @montereybayaquarium. Thanks for providing some moments of peaceful mindfulness in this bizarre time.
I wanted to try something new, so here ya go, crappy quality and all. Born of frustration of not being able to convince higher risk family members to Stay. At. Home.
Even though I've had a reserve of a week-ish of drawings for such an occasion, it's been quite some time since I last drew and as result shared. I did so for the first time tonight in a long while. Sometimes life happens, yknow? Anywho, this is a post to try and trick myself into accountability, let's see how it goes. If there's a noticable change in quality/skill/appearance in about 7 posts, this is the reason why.
