An Airship Thing

Here's the latest in the ol' Doodle Book. I messed up on that kid's hair, and it took a strange turn. Oh, well. To see all the other Doodle Book sketches, click here.

The Hulk. Punching Mimes.

Okay, today's Doodle Book page was pretty vague. it was just a "Danger" sign with the caption: "Whoops!"

My mind immediately went to a quicksand pit, but there was no inspiration there. In the end, I couldn't think of anything that would utilize the "Danger" sign, so I just threw Hulk into a circus and had him punch a mime.

Horse Sketch

Well. These are just getting weirder and weirder, aren't they?

This is another color technique I've been messing with. A more hand-drawn look, with a halftone (tiny dot) effect for the shading. (It turns out you can't see the dots unless you zoom in 100%, but this is experimentation, folks.)

Oh, and this is my 100th post! Holy mother of moley! And how to I celebrate? With a freaky horse, that's how. Cheers, mate.

Scary Shields Sketch

Look. It told me to "Make their shields scary." And scary I made them. So, cover your eyes, if you must.

Alien Invasion Sketch

This is the second sketch in my "Doodle Book." It's an alien invasion.

Today I decided to color the sketch. I've experimenting with a lot of different coloring techniques, and I'm trying to find the coloring style that I'm using for Wormhole. I like how this one turned out.


There were actually two pages for this entry in the book. This is what the first page looked like.

Doodle Book Thing


Last Christmas, I got this weird book called "The Boys' Doodle Book." I never thought I'd use it, and it's just been gathering dust lately, but now, I think I've found a use for it.

Each page has a different doodle prompt, with little side drawings to assist you.



So, whenever I want to do a sketch, I can flip to the next page in the book, draw whatever the heck it tells me to, scan it, and put it on the blog. This works better than my "random sketches," because not only does it suggest things for me (because you guys never give me suggestions), but it stretches my creativity. It's an excellent exercise, I do believe.

So. This should be interesting.
