Quixotic Wombat

Realistic faces are a pain in the ass. Too bad I actually want to improve at drawing them. *headdesk* So… here. A couple attempts at Benedict Cumberbatch's face. Just pen and ink, nothing fancy.

I am doing even more mucking about with pens than usual. Trying to do a little more "doing it right" and a little less "faking it all over the damn page." What can I say, ink is very soothing.

This was made with a ridiculous mishmash of pens and a couple brushes, and I'm not even going to try: except to say that the Pentel brush pen is still the most amazing thing I have EVER purchased and everyone should own one.

I was feeling ambitious today and finished the other three characters. These are all done with a Pentel brush pen, Micron pens for the crosshatching, and prismacolor markers.

Bic pen. Random index card I found lying around at work. Character design attempt that didn't quite go where I was trying to take it, but I still enjoy her hair. She is not a pirate, but I think she turned out well anyway. ^_^

Just something ridiculously self-indulgent I drew last night. I'll give it a real coloring job soon. Ikku's circuits need to glow blue, after all (or maybe red, red could be fun), else the costume really looks nothing at all like it should. Still, I thought I'd share the in-progress piece, as I'm quite (shamelessly) entertained.

More ninja turtles. Because apparently I'm just uncontrollably inclined that direction of late. Pentel brush pen for the linearts, and random colored pencils (I don't even know what brand) for emo!Leo there.

This is my lovely roomie's fault. She told me to draw a space pirate captain (or something to that effect), and since I only have one space pirate in my stable of characters, well. There you have it.

I drew this in red pen as a silly, pointless doodle and only after that decided to finish it, so it's probably even more rife with problems and errors and such than usual... but it was fun. I have no regrets. *wink*

Wow, that was... a bit of a delay in posting. Apologies, I don't even have the excuse of technical difficulties this time. Just a lot of late nights at work and coming home with zero energy.

By way of apology, I have for you this week a whole pile of chibis. I drew them ages ago and keep swearing to myself that I'm going to color each and every one of them. And I am. No, really. The cast of Star Trek Voyager deserves better than to sit neglected and forlorn on my harddrive for all time.

The EMH has a TINY HEAD. And in case I didn't mention it, these are now pretty much ancient. Also, Neelix doesn't represent because, at the time, I was way too terrified to try and draw him, especially even in chibi format. But anyway, I'm still entertained enough to inflict them on you, so there you go.
