I decided to join in on the Character Design Challenge over on Facebook. This month’s theme is “Gangster”. I thought it would be fun to imagine an old hit man who still wears out of fashion turn-of-the-century clothes. The costume was inspired by this photo: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/390405861423365659/

“Wassuuuup!…”

Today’s warmup sketch. Not sure it was 100% successful but it was based on a prompt from the Pose Drawing Sparkbook, “Smarmy”.

 

Sketchbook Update: Overstuffed Suitcase

With the start of the New Year I’ve been trying to do a practice warm-up sketch every day. So far so good. This is the first one that turned out decent enough I thought it was worth a post. It’s based on a prompt from the Pose Drawing Sparkbook that reads “Trying to close an overstuffed suitcase.” I started noodling around with the idea of a suitcase full of money and this is what I eventually came up with.
