Spaceman

Again, trying to approximate the look and feel of something that might have been crudely printed on a metal lunchbox, or a juice glass, or on a cheapie Ben Cooper Halloween costume. Going for a poorly-reproduced, slightly off-register look (with the aid of various Photoshop filters and tweaks). Why? Because it amuses me!

Floating Face

Trying to approximate the vintage look of poorly-reproduced commercial illustration from the age of carbon paper, photostats, and non-reducing Xerox machines.

Use Art Words in Your Drawings

It's coming up toward bedtime for me. I've watched TV, played with the cat, and dealt with a sink full of dirty dishes...but haven't drawn a single fershlugginer picture. No ideas, no time, no wherewithal to put pen to paper (tonight, anyway). The solution: I'm going to watch and rewatch Commander Mark's Secret City until inspiration strikes.

Gumshoe

Trying to get back into the groove, as it were.

Detective Guy

The only drawing I've actually finished in quite a while (hence the inactivity here).

Framed

A couple pictures I drew today and stuck in cheapo frames. Not based on anyone in particular!

The Masks Come Off at Midnight

While going through my art files this afternoon, I found an old, unfinished drawing from a couple years ago that I decided to redraw (fixing the original's many goofs). I think full color might have worked on this one, but I think the "moody" approach suits it best.
