Boredom in class
 
We had some free time during my Anatomy class so I got very bored and pulled out some fine point sharpies I'd bought for it. This is what turned out:

Honestly I've been struggling like crazy to draw him right for awhile now. It always turns out really bad and awkward. That's always with a pencil. For some reason when I used those sharpies it came out so much fluidly. D;

Sorry for the camera phone picture I had to take. I think I may invest in a scanner with my next paycheck.

I've said it before, and I shall say it again... You used sharpies?? Impressive, I'd never have the guts to do that. Great job TB! Aw, such a great smile! :D

I too have been thinking about getting a scanner...

Thank yooou~:D

Yeah, I almost never use pens/markers/anything that I can't correct a mistake. I'm guessing using them caused a sort of psyche out for me. It's like my mind yelling "omg don't you DARE make a mistake!"

That is so freaking adorable XD You did a great job, I love his pose, and the way you made him smile is just...it stands out for some reason, like he's super happy about something =D

Awesome job, I love it =D!

I love it too! It looks so colorful and clean. ;D

I too would be afraid to use Sharpies... they're so permanent!! You make one mistake, you can't go back! (unless you use an overhead projector thingy.) Really great work.

Nice work! I don't use Sharpies to draw with though, or any other markers, since I prefer the option of erasing until I'm 100% satisfied with the work. Sharpies tend to go right through most paper, too, and if they get on the table or desk, there's not much that will remove that ink. You can't remove that ink from overhead projectors, either; those markers are Vis-A-Vis markers, made to wipe off of plastic or other non-porous surfaces. As a teacher, I go through those like Eduardo through a sack of spuds.

Thanks guys, I'm really proud at the way it turned out. :-[ I've been doodling during Pharmacology last hour(I know I know, bad TB, pay attention in class!) and I think I may be using these markers from now on. I found out they're not Sharpies persay, but Bic fine point markers. They're still permanent ink markers but yeah, just throwing that out there. 8D

My best friend always uses perm. markers when she draws too, and I never understood why. Now I know better! :D

Impressive work!:D

TB 10-31-2007 02:15 PM

Some others I did today. ^^; They aren't very exciting poses and he looks a little moody in all of them, but I promise next time it'll be more big smiles. :P

That last one I went too far down with the red, so he's sockless in it. 8D

jekylljuice 10-31-2007 03:43 PM

Those are brilliant. You've captured a wonderful variety of the Wilt-Man's poses there, TB. :D

BabyCharmander 10-31-2007 04:42 PM

Those are cute. :D I like the poses.

Nem 10-31-2007 07:17 PM

I love the first Wilt in the line of moody Wilt's XD

It reminds me of me, while driving home in traffic, and then waiting 30+ minutes to get gas at the gas station, due to the attendants helping everyone but me, despite me being there first XD I was in such a foul mood, but it's pretty funny now that I think about it =D

Nice job though =) I love your art =D

Lynnie 10-31-2007 07:45 PM

Yay, more Wilt pics! Poor Wilt is sad, though. He must be sympathizing with those of us who had a long, hard, boring, somewhat bad day at work. Aww, he's too sweet! 8D

More nice work, TB! :D

antgirl1 11-01-2007 02:51 PM

Aww, those are so adoreable. Just goes to show Wilt has OTHER emotions, too! :D

BluebottleFlyer 11-02-2007 03:02 AM

Brilliant job with these pics, man. For some reason I find the moody Wilt pics a bit refreshing, sometimes even the Wilt-Man has to let those face muscles relax after all that grinning, lol. You draw him very well.:D

Medikor 11-02-2007 11:18 AM

Those are some really nice drawings. They almost look like animation stills.:D

xxxClaire 11-02-2007 12:45 PM

Those are great! Nice job! :D

Partymember 11-02-2007 06:19 PM

very nice!

Maybe you are better with the broader stroke of a Sharpie than with a fine pencil. Ever tried pastels? You might like them, they are broad-style and colorful. Cray-Pas are cool too, like an oily crayon, almost

TB 11-02-2007 06:39 PM

Thanks guys, you're making me blush! :-[

Also PM, no I've never tried pastels but I think I may check out some stores and try that out.
