Feb 09 DED Challenge = Day 11

Another day, another sketch, another original character. Some flower lovin' luchadore. I'll call him Daisy...because it's all nice and manly like.

JB90 vs. JB09

It's moving time again for the ole J. Brucester. Every time I go through this process, I always end up spending a couple hours going through a box with all my old drawings in it. I've had this tendency to never throw anything I've drawn away...finished, unfinished, whatever. I've got pages and pages of stuff stored up, and I always end up finding something specific that gets my attention, and makes me want to revisit it.

Today, I stumbled across this firey headed character. I originally drew him on May 28, 1990. I would have been 10 years old. I don't think I ever named this guy, but if I had, it was probably something simple and cliche like Fireball. Not all that impressed with my new take on the character--made him a bit squatier than I intended...though I blame the size of the paper for this. My plan was to try and stay as true to the original design as possible, to get the best possible contrast between my abilities as a 10 year old and my abilities as a 29 year old. I think it's safe to say...there's no real difference whatsoever. Heh.

I think I might do more of these, considering I've got oodles and oodles of characters to draw from. Lata!

Feb 09 DED Challenge = Day 8

Al and Bob from Stranger Danger today. I'm working on the style I want my next chapter for Vol. 2 to have...so this is what this one is about. Not there yet, but I inch closer with each sketch.

Feb 09 DED Challenge = Day 7

Couldn't sleep. Watched some TV and drew up a little Mechanic. The character has a really cool design, and is created and owned by my good buddy (and Torn Studios mate) Bryce Lee. This won't be the last thing I draw today, but it may be the only thing I post. Might take this sketch further, don't know yet.

Feb 09 DED Challenge = Day 6

Was practicing gestures today. The page full of crap I did won't scan clearly due to the pencil being too light. So, I grabbed one of the poses and drew something up real quick. I know the legs are screwy, wish I had more time to fix them. Oh well. Lemme know what you think!
