All hail…

Another of the character studies I'm doing. Again, this is one of the returning characters from the old Greener Pastures series, this time Caesar. I think I got exactly what I wanted in the sitting pose and expression, but I have a feeling I'll be redrawing the larger head portrait. It's not exactly right. I'll do some small, exploratory drawings of his head and face and then have another crack at this.

The all new, old, older Colin…

An A3 character study.

Here's the first look at a slight redesign of one of the characters from the original Greener Pastures series. Why redesign him? Various reasons, but mainly two – in this new story he's matured, as in he's a little older than he was in the original series, and also I'm hoping my drawing skills may have matured a little as well.

What you see here are the pencils for the study. I'll be inking it sooner or later. I'll show you that when it's done.

More on Theseus…

The last character study I posted here was of Theseus, who I said was a new character being introduced in Greener Pastures: The End. That's really only half true, as a fellow by the name of Theseus was the main character in Greener Pastures #7.5, and this is may be him again, or may be another aspect of him. Or maybe it's not him at all. It's hard to tell really. Our 'new' Theseus is certainly derived from the one that appeared in #7.5, at least visually, and perhaps thematically as well.

Anyway, here are a couple more Theseus sketches that I've done relating to GP:TE. They were done on a whiteboard and photographed as I was toying with some clothing design.

Character study…

An A3 character study.

I really enjoyed pencilling this character study of another of the new characters for Greener Pastures: The End. I was lucky enough to have a sleeping, leather jacket wearing life model on the bus the evening prior during my regular commute sketching session (see here), and that really helped in rendering this fellow's jacket.

Noah…

Finally! Some actual art on my blog!

I've been doing some character studies of both new and old characters for the upcoming story. Noah is one of the new characters. Here's the pencils for his A3 study, which I'll be inking when the mood takes me. Till then I'll continue to pencil more studies.
