Been drawing a lot lately... figure it's time to get posting. I'd love to get some feedback on these. My props to all the consistent posters. The "Daily Sketcbhooks" have been really inspirational.

very interesting...love the outfits

[Edwin]

that one dude Hermes Looks like an Asian Version of Wolverine. I like it a lot.

I wonder what it would look like with an X on his shirt instead o' dem Wings.



good work. lets see more.

[bonedog]

Edwin: Heh.. yah... I noticed the Wolverine resemblance, too. I just didn't want to use metallic wings or something... make it more realistic.

Thanks Inferno... I use fashion mags to help, and I've got a drawing book by Barbara Bradley that has some clothing tips, too.

Anyway... here's tonight's work.

[killing.people]

enjoy this one:


i havent seen a lot of your work, unless i am confusing you with someone else, but from what i see in these sketches, you are really stretching out into new territory, content and style wise. you have talent, great work, i'll definately keep an eye out for your updates.

[bonedog]

Thanks for noticing killing.people.

Here's tonight's work... not too special, but it was done from life.

Where you get that skull head from? I want one. More very nice drawings.

[Bimdog]

Nice contour line in this one, I like the pose too.

[bonedog]

Mephisto: thanks. try searching for anatomical head or something like that on google. i can't remember.

bimdog: thank you. the pose came from a fashion magazine.

When i see your nick i always remember this abstract girl image of yours (not in this thread...you posted it earlier)....i don't know why, but it somehow burned into my mind...i love it....it's so unusual and special...

[mephisto]

Thats fn ill. Nice colors.

[siskol p]

what do you think about these drawings bone? are they just some doodles or have you really spent some time on them, are they kinda cartoons for paintings (the one with the girl in the box) or studies?

the pencil work is really nice, you've got a nice approach to the figure, the last one with the blue chick, the purple really doesn't do it for me, are you using chalks? if so i'd spray fix what you've got down, then go back into it with another layer of chalks, repeat the process until done..

but yeah man the stuffs really lookin good, hope to see more outta you

[bonedog]

mephisto, fozzy: thanks

siskol: the full body ones are simply, "ok... my goal tonight is to come up with one drawing of one character."

If I don't set up limits like then it's hard to accomplish anything. I kinda liked the girl with the twigs/balls in her hair, but I thought it wasn't a very interesting drawing, so I did the thumbnail of the girl in the box to make her more interesting. I think it's got potential so I'm attempting to do a finished portfolio piece, which is the blue one. There will be more colors eventually I think, but not much.

anyway, been busy... works been slow coming

[mephisto]

is this girl out of your head or do you got a model/reference? cuz it goot

[bonedog]

mephisto: mostly from a chick in a magazine, but when the photo reference doesn't have the necessary details/setup you gotta be able to fill in the rest.

man, this piece is driving me nuts. i started another for refreshment and relaxation.

[bonedog]

still slow going

i gotta get the ball rolling... next few pieces will be far less time consuming

[jook]

sweet man. I love the costumes you come up with.

good show so far...

[Wednesday]

I rather like your drawings, they've caught my attention for some reason. The coloured pieces are really good, it looks like you pulled them together from the beginning. I'll be watching you.

[mephisto]

ILL SHOW YOU FILL IN THE REST!!! (:

[bonedog]

thanks fellas. drawing's been tough lately so encouragment helps a lot..

-bone

[mephisto]

YEAAAA. thats ill. I like that one a lot. I wann see it colors. Looks like it could be in a Art of Star Wars book.

[empty]

wow, quality stuff...i'm surprised you don't have more replies. i like what you've done on the one's that have color.

[mephisto]

sweeeet. Is the 90 dolla one actually that much better than the 30$ one?

[empty]

i have the budget skull with the vertebrae and i like it, but the vertebrae don't sit right like in the pictured. i would suggest saving 60$ and just getting the budget skull. i think it's good enough. i don't think you'd notice a large difference between that and the "classic" one.

[xia]

I dig the chic in blue. She is awesome!

[bonedog]

thanks guys. here's a couple more. the life drawing one isn't that great, but at least i gave it a shot.

"brothers and sisters, this is what it's all about: the power of god to make it better. you hear about the pope, about organized religion. rasta is none of that. rasta is the chalice. praises to Jah. Dreads are Jah antennae. I-and-I a rasta straight out of creation"
