Tourist

Two posts in one day. Go me!

Just wanted to post my first shot at the old perverted tourist. He's not perverted yet, unless he's just pretending to read the paper and is staring at the bikini clad college girls on the beach. But he's old. I still need to explore the character but I just drew this and was actually kind of happy with it. That doesn't happen often so I thought I'd share.

Yes I left the hands very gestural on purpose. I need more hand studies. :)

So hello blog. Long time since I've been here. I forgot to post most of my gesture drawing class drawings. Oops.

Well I was wanting to take some of my sketches from that class and delve into some character design. So here's a post.

This was the original gesture from class.

This was a first attempt to work on the face and then I added some of the body however, I'm having proportion or anatomical issues with the body. But my concentration was on the face. With the hair she reminds me of a pissed off Ariel.

Then I started to explore and added a cartoon tiny caveman to be her companion.

I think I like this face better.

She reminds me of a teenager.

And just to get away from the typical tiny waist woman character.

So there's some rough characters. Next up old perverted tourist man. :)
