Sketchy 133

….number something or other in a series of quite a few…

….fliiiiiiies…..

…(oh…and “living the doom”…)….

Sketchy 130

….holy crap…I celebrate 10 years of blogging over the next couple of days….

…’spose I should actually be blogging so I can enjoy the virtual cake and drinkies I’m sure to receive….

…another faux cigar box label to add to your collection….

…your welcome….

Sketchy 129

….from an ancient idea in a previous sketch book…

…based on cigar box seals….

…I think I was gonna make some cigar box guitars and got obsessed with that label patterns….

….or something….

…(apologies for the blurry bits….this sketchbook is warped beyond good scanning from pressing too hard with the pens!)….

Sketchy 122

…(casually wanders in from stage left and sticks something on wordpress like there’s been no gap in his content)….

…(will probably make some lame excuse like “I’ve been busy with the transition from finishing one large piece to starting another…and I quit my job”…or similar)….

….sorry for the gap in transmission team….

….I’ve been busy with the transition from finishing one large piece to starting another…

….and I quit my job….

…(can’t say I didn’t warn you)….

Paintbook 59/60

…kinda in that uneasy space between finishing something large and trying to start the next one…

…have a screed of notes and colour guides developing around my drawing table in preparation…

…was going to post some more sketchbook only to discover that I’d re-scanned the last page posted thinking it was the one I wanted to put up now…

…had to finish the above (abandoned since January) to get back into paintbook without guilt….

…now I want to do a “good” version to hang!….

…(ah…there’s that next rabbit hole…)….



Regular

Sketchy LXXXIV

…was trying to get some momentum to cartoon again….

….so have been doing sketch book comics from “found” scripts (the sketch book it is littered with “good ideas”)…

…but it all felt forced and incomplete (blanked when it came to backgrounds!)….

…kinda drifted back to eight legged things….

…and my good friend Dee gave me a coffee table book filled with Indian matchbox art….

…it would appear I’ve found another rabbit hole….
