More of That Jazz

Been a while since I posted anything. I should really have a regular drawing routine and get my shit together and start comicking 

I was brainstorming an Awsum Possum story and there is a poodle that he sees through the sliding glass door and during its walks that it has a nice place to sleep, food whenever it wants and basically gets pampered 24/7 and Awsum, wanting a cushy life for himself, kidnaps the poodle and takes his place. These are just character design ideas.

An illustration of "Snow White". If you can't tell what scene it is, its the Wicked Queen in disguise as an old beggar woman offering Snow White the poison apple. I had fun drawing the old gnarled up tree branches.

Faerie.

 Faces and random people. I think the nebulous one on the top is Jimi Hendrix.

I think the skinny children on the bottom are Hansel and Gretel.

Hands and mouths...and some heads.

People I practiced drawing from a magazine. I think it was "Better Homes and Gardens", something like that.

Soda Faeries, Beatles, Awsum Possum and Ye-Ye Girls

I found a blank notebook and I've been doodling in it since I seem to have some kind of deep-seated fear of unlined drawing paper, hah.

One my brothers (or it could have been my Dad) made a comment about 'soda faeries' so I tried to draw some.

I was talking to Bishop and we sort of came up with the character Awsum Possum. I don't know if I'll do anything with him but its definitely too kooky and, well AWESOME to throw out. Who knows? Maybe the story of his wish-granting girdle will be told :)

 

I was trying to do some full body poses of the Beatles 'toons, devoting THREE pages to each. Still a fan of the weird expressions <_<

 

  

Some of the poses are kind of wonky-looking but I was trying to draw different head views (..is that even the right word? O_o) and venture out of my comfort zone. I'm pretty sure there's a better way to draw the one on the 2nd page of Paul zipping up his jacket but hey, I'm still learning.

George...

A bit of Ringo. I figured out myself how many 'heads' tall the Beatles are! Go me :3
Calculating from the model sheets and with crudely drawn lines on Paint Shop Pro, I calculated George is about 3 heads high, and the model sheets DO say who is taller ("George is the same height as Paul", "Ringo is 1/2 a head shorter than George") so I kind of drew them side by side like that. It doesn't say on John's model sheet how short or tall he is compared with the other Beatles so I kind of put him as slightly shorter than Paul, since that's how it was in real life.

Trying to draw '60s girls. Among some random ones from magazine ads are Francoise Hardy, France Gall, Twiggy, Peggy Moffitt, and Nancy Sinatra.
