The Sketchiest

This is my progress on learning how to draw. I am not going to make you suffer my wireframes. I know that I didn't update last week, but consider this my Sunday drawing a day late. I'll likely update late Thursday. I just got a new job and don't have to work Thanksgiving, so that'll give me time to pump something out.

This is the sketchiest sketch I believe I've ever sketched. So, please bear with me some more. Oh, and I know that my sketches are normally some shade of blue, but when I was drawing the wireframe I made that blue, so this one gets to be orange so I can differentiate them. There's some brown in there too because I was having to draw the arms in a different color and Photoshop was being whiny about switching my colors so I did it weirdly.

I'll be getting glasses sometime next week, so hopefully that'll help a bit.

Also, I'm going to cut a lot out of my wireframe. For some reason when I draw it my arm proportions are always off, but I get the geometry bits correct. Hopefully I can learn to draw in my own style (whatever that may be; I trust it will develop over time) and cut out the preliminary steps (wireframe, geometry, muscle structure, etc), but for now I am where I am in drawing. I believe I am improving. I do have a lot of ideas for some comics, but they are going to wait until I'm ready to start drawing them. Yeah, I might have to wait a long time, but I'm willing to do that. No, I don't expect to be at the epitome of my art when I start to draw, but I hope to at least have the basics down.

Other than the people on Facebook and following my feed on Google Reader not many people actually look at this page, so I'm not terribly concerned about publishing until I feel I'm ready.

I considered for, like, 2 seconds making my comic in the style of wobbly jointed geometry people, but I looked at my drawing a little more and realized that the fact that he has no face. I think it's just that he reminds me a bit too much of Skeleton Harvester in that way.

Gah, this got TL;DR really quick. Well, I need to get to sleep pretty quick anyway. We'll talk to you soon.
