A small drawing I did for the dudes over at Drawforce. They do a monthly drawing topic and compile it all into a group blog. The topic for September was samurai. I've been thinking about salamanders recently. What is their deal.
I almost never do one-off character drawings anymore, but that is literally all I did for most of my adolescence. It feels weird to draw a character without an environment or context, but it's also an interesting challenge to try and pack as much narrative as possible into a design. Some different things become prioritized.
I took a character development class with Brian Ralph my junior year of college which really did a lot of good for my work and my sense of humor.
I dig it! Nice subdued tones...

ReplyDeleteYour line quality is simply amazing. Things like this make me ask myself "what is he doing that I'm failing to understand when I'm drawing" hehe.
ReplyDeleteI love it!! But I am partial to salamanders...Bonus points for the extinct amphibian whose name I forget on the flag!
ReplyDeleteWhat 'is' their deal
