Comic Jam: Super Giraffe/Girannamof

Remember a couple weeks ago when I got together with the super awesome Osama and sketched a bunch of awesome things? Well, I completely forgot that he’d already scanned and sent me one of the comics from his own sketchbook. Here it is!

Osama drew the first two panels plus the guy in the third, and I did the rest. So much fun.

Random: Dog, Donald, Film Noir

Some random sketches for y’all.

This was the result of an experiment. The carousel horse on the right was drawn and inked with a brushpen a few weeks ago. I drew the dog back then too, but only just got around to inking it today; with an actual, honest to god bottle of india ink and a paint brush! (Can you tell any difference?)

I’m so excited about it. I’d love to do more with brush-inked lines. The dog was a fun experiment. Obviously I need to practice a bit with it, work on keeping a steady hand.

Here’s a sketch of Donald Duck I drew without reference, also a couple weeks ago. I think I’m getting better!

Watched “The Big Sleep”, which of course had me drawing 1940-style Private Dicks and saucy ladies.

More ladies. Film Noir ladies are hard, for some reason. Anyway, still had fun sketchin’.

That’s it!

Ostriches are weird.

ostrich_weird1This occurred to me a few moments ago. I had to draw one. Never drawn one before… fancy that.

Too lazy to scan, so you get a terrible photo until I’m not so lazy. I really need another couple of lamps or something.

Well, all finished!

wc_pom1-2

I’d like to say thanks to the awesome Teresa of Lost In Wonder for the wonderful advice she gave me on DA. Of course this is just a small practice painting, but I am new at this, and her advice really helped me decide what my next step was going to be. Please give her blog a visit, she’s insanely talented, and I absolutely adore her paintings. You won’t regret it!

For sale, if anyone’s interested! Originally offering for $5, but feel free to make an offer if you’d rather pay less. It’s 6″x4″, postcard sized, has a postcard address/stamp layout on the back. Front is pretty much just as you see here, except without the website watermark.

Keep reading to hear me ramble about the process and what I learned. =)
