#inktober2019 day 14 overgrown #inktober #sketchdaily lol so i found these colored markers and thought i could use them to show like a jungle-y area overgrown with vines but these lines are way thicker than i expected so this was way better in my head. A…
#inktober2019 day 13: ash #inktober #sketchdaily I briefly considered just having the dragon burn all three so that the series is finished but instead here they are falling into a ravine lol

Quick doodle. Sam and Bucky. #sketch #comics #marvel

2019 August

Guido. I was originally gonna draw Hulk, but I realized I could continue the X-Factor theme instead. #xmen #sketch #strongguy
Polaris. Back to digital again, and trying out colors. A bit happier with my proportions this time. Now 3 out of 6 of the Peter David era X-Factor #sketch #xmen #polaris
Pietro, whose head looks a bit too small. Cribbed the pose off a Jim Lee Flash sketch. Well, learn from the best amirite? Pencils only this time. #sketch #xmen #quicksilver

2019 July

Wasnt sure whether to post this since thise proportions are out of whack and that right shoulder might be dislocated, but maybe I can use it as a ‘before’ picture for when I actually get good at this. My linework is a lot steadier when using a physical pen and paper (but still shaky) as compared to the apple pencil on ipad. I guess the friction of pen on paper matters.
Cyclops and all the X-men who appeared in Starcraft 2. Super messy but I really just wanted to do a quick sketch to maybe jog myself back into the habit. I wanted to tighten up the linework and clean up the colors but I had done some silly things with the layers that made it difficult do maybe I won’t lol #sketch #xmen #starcraft2

Havent done much sketching lately, but have been enjoying #mtgwar spoiler season so here’s the villainous Nicol Bolas #mtg #sketch

2018 August

I started this one a couple of days ago while waiting in a hospital lab that had terrible data signal (so no internet). Still struggling a bit with the proportions for women. #jessica #sketchdaily
