Fairly new here, figured I should start a sketchbook sooner or later. I don't have much to post just yet, but I have a few random pages from my sketchpad scanned in. Thanks for stopping by :yayca:

Hey there and Welcome. Some really nice studies going on here especially with the female form. Those 2 faces on the first page look cool and show real good potential.

Hey I came by to check on your sketchbook after reading your post in the Lounge. I actually see progress being made, dont be too hard on yourself and dont be too easy on yourself either, if you know what I mean ;)

Dwezz -thanks for looking!
Jarri - thank you for the comment, and i'll keep your advice in mind ;)


this is a new style i've been toying with lately. i usually do all-digital or all-traditional but lately i've been scanning in quick sketches, and then 'inking' them in photoshop and adding color. this is a little test i was doing to see how it would work
