Please hang up, and draw again.

Sketches from the other manga instruction book I’ve been working from lately. The photoTheir direct shot– Their manga version– And my direct rendering– Their alternate angle photo–And my…

You see what I’m seeing?

More alternate image sketching, but from the other volume. Here is the first pose from the reference volume, and you can see that they even include the center…

I think I’m turning… you know.

Well only if you’re old enough, probably. Anyway, working from another Japanese “How to draw manga” book, and as before, I can’t tell if it’s a Japanese publication,…

Willy Wonky Work in Progress

Been sketching from a “How to” book on drawing manga. This is one I found online, but I can’t tell if it’s a Japanese book that was published…

Need me some non-slip school slippers

Girls in anime/manga sure do fall down a lot. You’d think they’d wear more safety gear?

Sumo do, sumo don’t

Wait, that’s already the name of a show isn’t it? Nevermind. You gotta practice right? I mean Scandal (Japan) could call and ask me to draw their latest…

Man, oh man, oh manga

Yeah, still working on stuff out of the pose book.

Konnichiwa!

Yep, at it again. Was flipping thru an old pose file, may as well practice. 

She’s just a country girl with the blues

I admit, I like this one better converted to grayscale. Maybe this time it’s because of her outfit? Here’s how it looked originally.

Mucha much?

More blue, and from another photo book. I loved the fabric in this, and tried to capture the subtle silhouette of her form under the skirt. I always…

Sumimasen, are those bugle boy jeans?

More blue line. It really was for the challenge of the drapery/shirt, I swear.  Odd how just changing it to grayscale alters the feel. Perhaps it’s the contrast…

Blue us a kiss

Another blue lead image, and the model in this photo book was a riot. She had this habit of acting like a goofy kid, which made her adorable.

Nice purse you got there, fake lady

More non-life drawings, from another Japanese picture book.

Blue, period!

More sketches from Japanese photo books. I’ve mentioned I love working in this blue lead, and it’s not just the color; but I’m sure that’s part of it….

Back, in the natto groove

Sketching from my Japanese photo books again.

She’s got… ZZTop?

Stuff I enjoy drawing- Coats, long hair, and heels– I don’t know why.

Keeping up the chops

More non-life sketches, simple, line, clean, unpaid. Man, I just love that blue lead, and not just for the color; but more on that later. 

Don’t push your luck kid, just draw!

Here are some examples of what I talked about earlier in the week. As you can see, I started spending more and more time rendering out the figures…

Time waits for no one

I was doing more sketches from the pose app, and I was doing them at 5 min, but I kept wanting to finish the images out a bit….
