Lounging female nude sketch
by PainedBrain on Mar.21, 2010, under Sketchbook
Yes another one. What can I say, they are enjoyable to draw. This one was started at lunch one day last week, blue pencil in my sketchbook, no ref. I don’t tend to have an idea of what I’m going to draw when I do my lunchtime sketches, I just start doodling, usually just a head shape then sweep in a spine and shoulders and see what I see. A lot of adjusting can go on from there as I slash in where the hips will be be and make a rough rib cage. When I did this one she ended up having a very contorted pose, but I took it as a challenge. Contorted poses are hard to draw even when you have reference, to say nothing of when you have to yank it all out of your noggin’. I think I did a fair job. I did most of the basic roughing out the pose during my lunch break and then finished off the drawing before some friends came over for dinner that night.

Blue pencil in a moleskine sketchbook. Just my take on the Cimmerian. I was a bit distracted by the very tasty BLT + Avacado I was eating at the time so a few of the proportions are a bit off… it was worth it.

Female portrait sketch, still pretty rough, guide lines are still there. Not of anyone in particular, just out of my head, working out what I want one of my characters to look like

When I was originally thinking about the world my comic characters lived in, I thought I might have them living in an old military fort that had been swallowed by this giant ancient tree. I eventually decided against that, but this is one of the original sketches of what that would look like.
