30% gray 100% toxic fumes

still trying to draw the girls as much as i can, but i fell out of it because i'm tired of being stressed about having them look decent. i realize that it's all a learning process and 99% of it will look weird before it even begins to look right. there's that little demon of pessimism (sp?) that tells me that i should've had this shit down while i was in school. too bad they kept me behind a computer and out of the life drawing studio class. thanks a-holes.

anyways, let's begin with the best known comic cliché - girls and guns. yay! now that i'm attempting to re-orient myself i discovered in the whole "guns and girls" process that i can only draw one kind of gun (below). i'm going to buy an issue of guns&ammo first thing tomorrow to remedy that problem.



speaking of clichés, dogs playing poker. only these with my dogs. well, 2 out of 3. i was helping the in-laws move some furniture. so i caught a ride and was able to draw (just barely) along the way. for the next two i couldn't bust out my gray marker because of the fumes. i'll probably finish them later tonight.

i love the heads in jars on futurama.. a great excuse to have 20th-21st century celebrities to make an appearance, but this is george washington. so i missed by a couple hundred years.



and then there's abe lincoln. closer, but still no. i actually did lincoln first, then i did washington and the poker dogs during my trip to hampton.


..uummm and that's my story.
