Agent Scully redux

I used a reference I found online but I think the previous one looks more like the Agent Scully we all know.

Sketch A Day, part two

My first try at drawing Agent Scully while watching reruns of 'X-Files'.

Sketch your Life attempt one

I'm currently undertaking Michael Nobbs' Sketch Everyday challenge, and this is one of the pages. I recently found the third season of 'Bones' at Rasputins and was watching it. I adore the main character, Bones, so dang much, ADORE. So while watching ' Player Under Pressure' I made an attempt to sketch her face out, it seemed easy enough, she has very strong features (her jawline, her eyes) but it proved a lot harder than I'd hoped. Hopefully, for a first try, it looks enough like her that I can be proud. In the same episode there was a character with a distinctive and retro hairstyle, which I quickly jotted down, in the corner opposite Bones. I made an aborted try at Zach, my second favorite character, but he proved too hard to try, not without a still of him. (Oh man, The Pain in the Heart! :( ) In the very bottom, the PG is a try at designing a logo for Power Girl to go in the hole on her chest, but you know, her chest hole IS kinda her logo now huh? The rest are doodles, nothing too terribly amazing, but it feels nice to have something on paper, something to be working on instead of sitting idly watching my dvds.

Sketch Your Life-Michael Nobbs

So I recently downloaded Michael Nobbs' free ebook 'Start to Draw Your Life' (Here ) and his book gave me more ideas for what to do with this blog, hopefully this will breathe some new life here. I'll try to do what he suggests, drawing something from my life, something small and quick every day and upload it here, not quite every day, I start school again in a couple of weeks and I don't know how much time I'll have to mess with scanning and uploads and the like but I can at least try a massive weekend dump every week. I try to draw a bit every day but it usually results in sketches and detailed drawings of people and the like, not exactly super challenging stuff or stream of consciousness style sketches like Michael Nobbs is encouraging, so let's see if I can take up his challenge.

His blog, I plan to read through it and see what information I learn from it, is here.
