So a couple days ago I had an argument with my brother. Well, to blow off steam, I sat down and started drawing random stuff right after that. Result? I did 17 loose pencil sketches that night.

These are the inks for the first five :D


Here I entirely redid the background while working. There were supposed to be chains and stuff, but as I was adding the details, I noticed that putting a dark tree behind would give a better visual result.


This one, I took shortcut and just blacked out the tshirt after struggling with shading it, haha.


This piece almost ruined my hand. I think I needed ten different approach to find a way to shade the damn rocks. HOURS of hatching, crosshatching, doing squiggles and scribbles, blacking it out, erasing, deleting layers... but right now I'm quite satisfied with it. Finished it this morning.


Now on this one I told myself "you need to let your hand rest" so I kept the shading low, just detail the robot.


This one started as a random squiggle, just drew a couple of flowing lines on the papaer and went with what the shapes suggested. Moments later I had the helmet and the rest went on from there :D

That's it, tell me what you think. I'll probably keep on updating this as I ink further pieces (I think all of these will end up in my sketchbook too).

Tell me what you think :D

Your work is really really creative and dynamic! I think I could learn something from you lol

Thank you :D

Learn anything from me? Ha, I'm not a very good teacher, plus I'm still learning myself.

Well, two new pieces:

"Who Are You Calling a Kid"


"Twisted Hand of Fate"


First one is I guess loosely Poison Elves inspired (regardless that no cretures in there look like that, especially not elves) whereas the second one is more of a Philippe Druillet impression thing.

When I said I could learn something from you I meant that you seem to have no fear of expressing any ideas you have. I used to draw anything that I could imagine, but recently that's kind of started to die away in me. I need to get more creative again. I can draw, I just don't draw to my full potential anymore because I hold back my crazier ideas lol, so I need to be more like you in that aspect, I think.

Oh, I see, that's what you meant :D

Well, have fun and draw stuff then. You could just start a sketchbook or something for these crazy ideas, maybe some of them will find place in your comics, maybe not, but even if they don't they'll be good practice (never enough practice, there's always room for improvement).

Yeah I used to always keep sketchbooks and that's where most of my more creative work is lol. The only sketchbook I did recently was in Portugal, but that has some fairly good comic art in it. I think I'll start drawing in there again

I always carry a sketchbook and a mechanical pencil in my bag (just in case) - it helps when I get bored

Ditto. But everytime I have it I never use it. When I don't I come up wit ideas. Oh the irony!
