finally, the return of sketch night!\u00a0 i used to goto something called Dr. Sketchy, but due to new management at the last venue, they’ve moved to a much better location.\u00a0 sketch night is now at a comic shop that’s been voted best in Orlando like 4 times in a row, A Comic Shop<\/a>.\u00a0 it’s a fantastic store and the sketching actually takes place in a room in the back, called the Geek Easy<\/a>.\u00a0 it’s got drawing table and everything!<\/p>\n

anyways, let’s get to the art!\u00a0 we start as always with some 30 seconds quickies.\u00a0 tonight, i really wanted to focus on hair and the flow of it.\u00a0 so, you’ll see that i go straight to that in most cases.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

next, one minute sketches.\u00a0 here, i’m still using the Copic sketch black marker.\u00a0 i find the flow of the ink great for the fast paced action.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

next, 2 minute sketches.\u00a0 i started using a new 0.1 Copic multiliner, but quickly found that with it just wasn’t enough time to get the level of detail i needed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

here, we have a 5 minute sketches, which allowed me to go back to the 0.1 Copic multiliner.\u00a0 and with the additional time, comes more details.\u00a0 as you start seeing, tonight’s subject is actually from the upcoming Sucker Punch<\/a> movie, featuring Sweet Pea, modeled by Jessica Steele<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

onward to 10 minutes!\u00a0 this sketch is my favorite of the night’s.\u00a0 (cause from here, it’s just downhill!)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

tonight’s challenge was open-ended.\u00a0 basically incorporate any element of the upcoming Sucker Punch movie into the art, such as orcs, mecha-robots, zombies, etc.\u00a0 and this is where i started getting frustrated.\u00a0 i started on one idea, got frustrated, then started on this one below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

so, by the last sketch, we were back to 10 minutes and this was the best i could come up with.\u00a0 actuallyhad some fun using a very thick pencil lead and instead of shading with ink and cross-hatching, this was some good ‘ole pencil pressure for shading.<\/p>\n
