Practise what you know, and it will help to make clear what now you do not know.

i'm uploading some more of my sketches, well the last of them i should say, i am finally up to date. well i probably wont be for long. i first wanted to share my practice line drawings. i often sit down and just draw lines and shapes, its often not very interesting but i find its important for drawing. it makes a good warm up exercise, i find especially when i draw digitally i draw tons of lines and shapes before erasing everything and starting my sketches. i did save a couple of the digital ones (the first 2) drawing a straight line most people see as not important as they can whip out a ruler and ta daa a straight line however i find if you can draw a pretty straight line with confidence and without a ruler you can pretty much ink absolutely anything. i wasn't aloud to use a ruler in my product design class except for creating final designs... even in tests and the exam we didn't use them for quick designs and only when instructed. i guess from that class (and the fact my ruler was the most lost item of my pencil case) i never really used them since then. i will occasionally if i need a really straight line such as a boarder but other then that it stays in the back of my art draw.









okay more sketches now. the first is titled scary eyes, because well like my sister said she has scary eyes



now we have some weird helmet. i don't have a clue what was going through my mind when i scribbled it XD






a dude smoking. smoking kills kids, don't do it. i don't smoke by the way just thought the pose suited smoking...



a girl with a... i think it could either be a cocktail drink or a stuffed rabbit... i cant remember what it was, i'll let you guys come to your own decisions

woo a bin lid for a hat, i was thinking how fox girls etc. go about hiding there ears, it was at the time i started creating my masquerade character and at that time she isn't hiding her ears or face, while everyone else wheres a mask, and i was thinking how would she normally hide her ears? big hat like this works, though it could do with some hanging fabric and decoration.


yey sweetles and pretztails... i don't know what the otter type thing is but i was watching my boyfriend play viva pinata trouble in paradise as i was drawing. i love the paper texture and think rare are an awesome company :)



a person with glasses, i quite like her hairstyle. i also realise i need to do more really curly characters as i either draw straight or wavy haired people



very rare fan art. this is Marta and Emil from tales of symphonia dawn of the new world. i like this game, it was fun and i enjoyed it, it was a nice sequel, though why you couldn't play as anyone else other then Marta and Emil as player one i don't know. but Emil is really floaty which is fun so that wasn't to much of a problem. gotta play through it again and get the other endings still and go through the extra dungeon that unlocks after you complete your first play through.




really bad marker colouring practice, at the time i just didn't have enough markers, i have a lot more now but still filling in the gaps in my collection.



the dragon and the wolf. i plan of taking these pictures somewhere though i currently prefer the second picture for this. i like the wolfs sad face. think it would be awesome to show the cocky dragon and the lonely wolf in a dance of some sought. we shall see what comes of it.




i drew this on the bus i believe i had been reading about Japanese mythology at the time. though her design isn't very Japanese.



hyugoman chibi, he needs bigger boots. bigger boots are vital. my chibi's usually have tiny feet though.


and last but not least a actual charcoal drawing. stock image taken from comic artists photo reference: Women and girls by Buddy Scalera. charcoal is one of my weaker mediums so its not as good as some of my figure drawing from reference it was fun non the least.




so thats all my sketches from my sketch books. lets hope this years sketch book is even better :)

happy drawing/writing/whatever you guys do
