I've not spent much time at it over the last few days, just a few scibbles trying to grasp different body positions, and pretty much just letting the pen do what it wants to do without thinking about it.

1,2,3. interesting on the 3rd yin I started introducing the concept of a line of action on a couple of them, it's actually starting to make some kinda sense.

For that eureka moment alone, I'm calling these 3 no18! 😆

3(getting somewhere, dunno where, but somewhere 😆 it's a concept worth exploring for another 1000 scribbles.)

Tried shading with an ink/water wash but I think I prefer it before.

Topic starter
 

Right here is my proper doodle for today:

Then all the talk above I came up with this for STW to decipher:

Ooh, love the robot fish!

I’m struggling. Mysterious barely worked out, fat is pretty lame, I’m totally stumped for graceful. I can’t draw people (not even anime ones, what *is* that about?) or swans or anything that looks like a thing. Basically I can’t actually draw. Might have to go for a graceful looking line, in a move which is probably a bit too close to pretentiousness for comfort.

This was fat. It’s certainly no robot fish.

Full crayon 😆

Great stuff lads and lasses. Love it!

So nice to have a thread that's not littered with bickering but full of creativity, learning and expressing ourselves without words - it's the future. Lets keep it going long after October has gone.

Marijuana withdrawal inspired weirdness...(sneaked a little bit of paint in - no idea why

Morning all. I turned the idea of 'graceful' over in my mind and came up with ballerinas, acrobats, etc. Then I made this:

I've done a bit of what seosamh77 is doing - though in pencil so it doesn't count. None if it is fit to share. Anatomy is hard! So I cheat with ArtPose on my phone 🙂

That is fully awesome. What's the judges name?

I'm doing another Judge Dredd themed piece myself at the mo 😆

Mean Machine work in progress. 100% based on a photo of the character from the Stallone film.

Edit: Maybe I should have played the guess who game 😉

JimJam - the judge's name is a tricky one. I have a medical condition which means I'm unable to take anything seriously, even something I've spent time and energy on, so I sort of settled on 'Whiffle' which is something from a PG Wodehouse story (which I watched on the telly, being a bit of a slow reader). Sadly, a combination of poor planning and the tendency of ink to feather really, really badly on the paper in my sketchbook meant that I ended up writing Pfifle except with some of the letters in the wrong order and a spare one at the end that even I can't read.

I bet that was a longer explanation than you expected 🙂

Thank you and yes, that was a bit of an unexpected tangent. I couldn't read it but I was curious if it was supposed to look like an established character. Then again I can't really remember the names of any of the female judges bar Anderson.

Decided to cut my loses and finish this. I figured it would look more interesting (and more recognisible as Mean Machine) if I flipped it so his robotic eye was in the image. I guess it looks a bit "Terminatory" but hey.

I just used to photoshop (don't even) to wash in the skin tone and the red. Other than that it's just how the photo looks. Cranked down the camera a bit to crush some of the blacks.

Sure, it's up now who cares, not like I'm getting paid by the hour 😉

Jim was meaning before Photoshop. I think it looks far better more silvery.

Gotcha. Initially rattle cans, stove paint for black and Halfords primer for the white. Then I worked into that with marker pens, charcoal and blender/white charcoal.

That last guy certainly brings back some (dusty old) memories.

I have a fairly complicated concept for tomorrow's piece. Looking a lot of gothic medieval woodcut style pieces for inspitation 😈

Was short of time and ideas yesterday. I'm finding portraiture a good substitute when time is short.
