Trading accuracy for more caricature-style distortion. Eh.
STILL not through the 2016 art backlog! But these should be the end of the gray church sketchbooks (did I mention my husband got me a tan one? HAR!).
Slurpin’ ramen, stressed to THE MAXXX, and happy.
I’m sorry the scans are ugly, but I did them in non-photo blue (never thinking I’d scan them, they were just stress art). When NPB scans, it’s barely visible (which is great for cleanup, I do it all the time)…so I had to jack up the scans to make ’em visible. But they’re still cute! :3
Whoa! I thought I uploaded these ages ago!
Yeeeah nosferatu prince with suspenders on the prairie HIII YAH
(actually, they dropped a horror movie right in the middle of “On the Banks of Plum Creek” in the form of LOCUSTS OH SNAP so vampires on the prairie may not be as much of a stretch as i thought)
and some GIS copies.
Finished scanning my grey sketchbook!! Posting pages out of order.
Comic artist Dirk Grundy reminded me in a recent post that caricature is an important skill, too! So instead of aiming for +++ accuracy (like the upper left image), I thought I’d try messing with proportions (like the lower left drawing!). OK, so it’s more like a “portrait charge” (French, look it up) than a hardcore caricature, but still!

Using @dustbunnythumper‘s 2016 template because I got impatient.
Credits: January is from the Inkspirations for Cat Lovers Coloring Book (not my lineart), August is a master study, and March’s abomination is Sargon the rat, from the game Armello.
In other news: still working on Christmas cat story and cover, need to scan a million sketchbook things.
