My warmup for the day.

I haven't done a random pointless sketch in so long...until tonight. I had a tough weekend so I've been way too unmotivated today. So I was thinking about True Blood this weekend and I slopped this guy together. One thing I did learn though is I'm starting to digest more and more why people paint B&W then color. This was an ok sketch but as I messed up the palette I kept painting over it. Had I worked in B&W to begin with I wouldn't have had all these problems. ...not like I was trying to accomplish anything in particular though.

Another character sketch... This one drove me crazy.

Another character sketch.

This morning I started doing some character sketches for a story me and Alex are working on.

I was looking for my Candy Striper poster and came across these two preliminary sketches. I don't even remember doing these! Usually I don't save any of my sketches after the final image is done, but for some reason I held on to these. So I thought why not post them. I almost didn't because I really don't like them, but I figured it just goes to show why I didn't use this initial design in the first place.

I tried doing this mildly different from my normal approach and it felt a little less challenging. But instead of coming back to this image I think I may try a different model tomorrow.
