Inktober Day 6 -Character Thumbnails

For this page, I was practicing thumbnailing some character designs. I had fun playing around with the shapes and poses and getting comfortable staying loose with the sketches.

Inktober Day 4-

Demon and angel portrait studies. The angel was from a marble sculpture, well, the devil lady was from an old black and white film. I liked the juxtaposition of the two characters on the page.

It's been a while, but I decided to take on Inktober this year! I'm not following the prompts, though; rather, I'm going to just go with whatever I'm feeling at the moment. For my medium, I'm using Copic Markers and Micron Pens.

A man and his burro delivering firewood door to door too residents in the early morning. For this one, I wanted to show the history of Burro Alley and the traditions of delivering firewood in the early days in Santa Fe, NM.
