Self portrait sketch

In addition to other things, I am working on a challenge from CG Hub - 'skinless portraits.'  Very fun.  So, here is my quick color study of myself.  And I do mean quick, as in a sketch. 

Webcam shot - I'm tired.

So, this will be the basis of a 'skinned' portrait.  Fun!  I love CG Hub - they have great ideas.

Random sketches: hippos

So, I've been pretty swamped at work, and I haven't had a lot of time to get much of anything done.  However, I did sketch some hippos. Including a hippo from a challenge about flying animals that ended up flopping.  So, it's not going anywhere any time soon, but it was fun to sketch.  Enjoy.

Hippo poses - roughly 3-5 minutes spent on each

Start of an idea.  I like hippo feet.

Eye studies

Today was a busy day at work.  Lots of questions to answer and fractured bones to segment.  So, I decided to do just a few quick 5-10 minute sketches of eyes to relax when I got home.  The two panels I am doing for AMI are on my mind, and tomorrow is a holiday.  So, hopefully, I'll be able to get some great work done.

Sketches!

How I remember eyes, with no additional study of life or mirrors, etc. Hmm...  In many ways, this reminds me of manga eyes. 

Time for a real reference!  With very thin eyebrows...  Eyebrows are dumb.

Woah.  Perspective.  I dislike side views, so I'm trying to sketch them more

Lush lashes.
