sketches

Part of the main purpose for me having this blog was to post spme sketches regularly to show what kinds of things go through my head and o show my versatility I guess.

Here is a sketch I admit is about a month old. It is for a postponed project I wanted to do about a crazy, drunken rabbit. Kind of a rags to riches story. I still might do it, so stay tuned. My first character I made up whenI was probably 7 or 8 years old was Randy the Rabbit who later became Randy the Hare because people kept saying I was copying Roger Rabbit. I wasn't of course, but hey. So I have a special place in my heart for rabbits and I told myself I wanted to revisit that and go back to myt rooots at some point.

I just finished Thursdays trip. Its late and I am tired and the baby has not gone to sleep yet, I did alot of the computer stuff actually with him on my lap. Until he wanted to fuss of course. but that made getting it done that much more satisfying. Thats it for now. Peace

Crow Quill Pens

Today I did my second strip with a crow quill pen. It is in no way a new pen, Ive had the thing forever because I heard or read that some artist I liked used one. So I decided to crack the thing open for a change and try it out. I am actually liking the crow quill. It takes a little longer than my beloved microns, but it has an obviously more organic look.
Be sure and check out the strip, link to it, tell all your friends. A brotha is working hard to make this thing good and as proffessional as I can. I'm trying to step my game up more with each strip. I'm watching Semi-Pro on DVD as I write and its pretty funny. Same old Will Ferrel schtick, which I like. Poor Andre 3000. I am the hugest Outkast fan ever. My all time favorite group. But that man could not act for crap. He cannot shake that deep south Atlanta accent for anything, which is hilarious. Oh yeah! Go see Kung-Fu Panda! If you are an artist and like animation, to not be a Pixar movie it is the most beautiful. The way the color schemes change to fit the tone of the story. Aw man, its gorgeous. And its funny too. Until next time folks, keep the peace.
