sketchbook pages

okey dokey...

so here's a few pages of some ideation style exploration.

this is a 6x9 sketchbook, so these aren't that big.


this first style is pretty much how i sketch now but looser and with a different pen...





this style is way different from what i do now. more of a continuous line thing.








a 30 second summary of life as a fat cat.



the one thing i'm sure i like about this style is that it's very quick. so i'm gonna feel this out a bit, fill a few sketchbooks before classes, and see how i like it. i'm sure that this style is one that needs to be practiced a shitload, so that's what i'm gonna do.


ok...crit away!


more to come!

h'ok, so...

after a bit of time with prismacolor i'm not happy with the results,

so i turned to a uniball pen and a sketchbook, and have finally discovered something a lot of you have had figured out for a while.

soooo i'm trying a more automotive-thumbnail-style quick ideation sketch.

i'll be postin sketchbook pages on monday...


on an unrelated note, go see (500) days of summer, it's amazing.

going into pen-sketch rehab



i was sketching trucks today and realized that my sketching is (still) waaay to tight. (see above)

i've been trying to loosen up my sketches for a while now...and it's not working with my current pen technique...

so, i'm gonna spend the weekend tearing up some newsprint with my old buddy prismacolor. quick, loose, & dirty. i'm hoping this'll lead to a better ideation sketch style than what i have now.

so i'm off until monday, i'll have a massive post for ya then.

2 more bikes for We Draw Cars





A few more bikes.

These are getting a little redundant, so i'm gonna change it up a bit with the next batch.

Also, before you say it, I know they can't steer and i know there are some ergonomic issues, I'll fix all that stuff at a later phase. these are just to flesh out an aesthetic theme.


tomorrow: trucks, hover-jet-bike-things, and other stuff
