Catch of the day -and a life drawing

I don't know why.... but 10 minutes spent before getting onto other work- this. Maybe I ought to join Peter Yong in his violent fridays, ......maybe I should start fishy friday.
The other drawing I did at QLD sculptors last night (got there very late..sigh) wasn't too bad but its still on the wall there-I'll get it and scan it next week.

Cover character roughs..spot the odd one out

Yes the one with the hat is a poor excuse for a fairy penguin, it's laughable attempt at evolving to cope with modern life failed and it got caught up in youth culture of the day. And now wears one of those ridiculous "Dicky Knee" style hair cut and cap. A sure sign that nature is on its knees.

Life drawing starts again- again

After a month or two out I've been at life drawing again. A bit dodgy- I seem to get there fairly late and frazzled each time. They do have wine and cheese and biscuits which helps though. Also there's a lot of shifting of heaters for models that completely change the lighting between sittings,- those are my excuses and I'm sticking with them.

Almost done this book

Here's 2 pages from the current Little Mates book
- not quite done.
Neeeeearly.
(In case you are wondering I'd initially accidentally done the heads and legs too big compared to real emus but I decided to keep it that way- otherwise their heads would be so small on the small page you'd hardly see their expression. Might fix jump guy's left leg though.)

And a couple of odd scribbles I had lying around.

A proper post and update soon.

A quick bit of icelandic inspired practice, plus one not so icelandic.
