Howdy. Finally some sketchbook stuff. I got a new one 2 days ago. quite a nice one as well, a friend of mine handmade a couple of really slick SBs and let me purchase one from him..... shes a beaut ^^

here we go. I dont know how often Ill draw in it, usually my enthusiasm for a new sketchbook lasts about 10 - 15 pages, but dont quote me on that....

Heres two new pages out of the SB (not happy with the scan on this one.... some subtle nuances missing, making the face look worse than it is...)

btw, sorry if I don't reply to my guestbook right away...my browser doesnt load alot of threads on CA, including my guestbook :X

Here a new page. I dont really have time for this at all, but since I do most of these during smoke break on the balcony ^^

EDIT: did this (hellboy pg) during holiday.... spent most of the time on the beach or at the pool though.... so this and the page after are the only thing I did in a while.....

2 more pages, had a little time to kill....
acrylic / gouache / ink. I know Im getting repetitive with the japanese woodcut clouds, but screw it... I just love the simple design element of 'em.

2 more ^^

heres some drawings, quick ones...done with marker, gel pen, and brush pen.... I scan them in and add half tones in PS. I used to be a huge moebius fan when I was younger, and he really re-invented the deadline (as in lineweight) with half tone..I always loved those drawings of his. Anyway, this isn't an effort to copy his style.... just trying to do something I'm happy with borrowing the technique.....

I'm hoping to do more of these....
