Well it's taken me over two years to get to page nine, so eek.

...bloody kiwi :p

Anyway. 2 pages from my little book.

**invinciblewombat** · September 16th, 2007, 03:59 PM

looking good in here, all those studies are really paying off in your drawings

**Chance.** · September 20th, 2007, 01:00 PM

Man, all you need to do for improvement is draw draw draw! It is obvious that you are seeing extrememly well, so what you really need at this point is to put in lots of practice time to refine your motor skills, as it were.

Aka, POST MORE OFTEN

Newest stuff first:

Its captivating.

This is like, my favorite sketchbook ive seen so far.

great work =)

**RandAlThor** · November 1st, 2007, 05:22 PM

Nice volume/quality of work.. Really like the 'blue' piece, very cool birds. Only crit would be to use varying line weights in your pencils, i think that would really help them zing... ;-)

**fionkell** · November 3rd, 2007, 01:39 AM

panda: Voyager? I confess I was no Trekkie, but more of a Gater heh heh heh.
daveskogstad: thanks mate
smoothrider_41: hmm, revisiting it could be a good idea...i really should follow through on my sketches sometimes for practice's sake...
RandAlThor: heh thanks. spose my biggest crime is that rather than buying good pencils i just take any i find laying around, quality be damned :p

Reposting my 'Self-Portrait Day' SP over in here

Didn't have much time on my hands that day:

**HunterKiller_** · November 3rd, 2007, 04:53 AM

Nice updates, mate.

I love that Easter Island statues! LOL.
The tree with the sapling came out really nice.

**jim b** · November 3rd, 2007, 09:50 AM

nice work man. you have a very nice quality to your line, which got me thinking about improving my own. keep it up!

**invinciblewombat** · November 11th, 2007, 11:45 PM

the black one in the cmyk series cracked me up, i feel like blue and red are the most effective out of the series though, the subject matter and renderings are perfect. keep on kicking arse.

**Chance.** · November 27th, 2007, 06:03 PM

I feel so bad for not posting in so long, I swear I will try to get in here and say something constructive soon.

cw · January 14th, 2008, 02:50 AM

figures are coming out awesome!

forget 'the dips' - i get it all the time,. and as you say, the only way is to plow on through the other side.

I'm in a dip right now, so tonight I'm gonna draw til my hands hurt.

cool updates, animals look lovely as ever and your figures have some nice detail to them.

**fionkell** · March 28th, 2008, 12:55 AM

whee

No scanner, not for a while, tons of sketches/studies that I can't post lol. Good to be in the swing of things again?

**HunterKiller_** · March 29th, 2008, 02:48 AM

No scanner? Then do moar digitals!

Nice character here.
I think his left horn isn't foreshortened correctly, considering the angle of his right horn.
Also, I find it's good design to vary the angle of collar bones - horizontal is boring.

**Kaffinated** · March 29th, 2008, 06:04 AM

Awesome work! Your easter island post had me loling lots it would make a great shirt img.

**Clochette** · March 29th, 2008, 06:09 AM

Hey! Really good things in you SB! I totally love this piece : http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...lack_final.jpg
Makes me so happy! And your self portrait going good!

cw · March 29th, 2008, 07:09 PM

nice characters you have there - animals still my favourites- you have a dark power with those of the animal kingdom, they have an eerie lifelike quality at times.

wicked stuff - is our sketchgroup still alive then? ;-)

**fionkell** · April 1st, 2008, 02:15 AM

Cheers guys. Apoc: Well, I know I'm alive, so I guess we're at least 3-strong :p

Whee...Green Sea Turtles in various rough stages of progress, helping a friend out with a life cycle poster for these be-shelled surfer dudes. Trying to get hang of sketching in PS.
