For the Kicks


Here's the original line art for that marker sketch from before, along with some alternate inking. You know, in case you felt there was something missing from your life.

More Ink n' Marker







The first one I roughed with the marker and then tightened up the drawing with the black ink. The second one was the more traditional pencil, then ink, erase the pencil, photocopy the ink, then marker. Looking at them side by side, I note the pitfall of the "default pose". I mean, they're not identical, but they're close enough that I'm smelling formula.

It was just sitting there, so I took a picture of it.

The taking photos of drawings may or may not be getting out of hand.









Some on post it notes, some on legal, some from honest-to-jeebus sketch books. The marker is fun, it's a prismacolor, cloud blue or sky blue or tears-of-a-clown blue or something.

Things are going pretty well, thanks for asking. My wife is watching "Suits", which is a show starring attractive, intense, driven people doing attractive, intense, driven things. I can relate. I'm doing a blog post after two scotches and a beer. Basically the same thing.

I'm in a play. My lines are a good deal of political exposition. I talk a lot about legislation and Victorian economics and other things I don't understand. I plan on growing some very large side burns, I think that will sell it.

Running a short Dungeons and Dragon's campaign. I'm finding that my group seems to get a bit bored with the fighty stuff, they like the social encounters. I threw an insane kobold guide into the mix last session, really seemed to perk things up. Maybe I'm just more entertaining doing funny kobold voices than I am describing graphic violence.

Lastly, I just noticed that last December marked ten years that I've been on blogger, if you don't count the bit where I took an almost year long break. So happy Bloggiversary to me, I suppose.
