contest theme for tonight was to incorporate killer appliances into the sketch.\u00a0 first off, i had grand plans for this one!\u00a0 i&#8217;m talking fridges, stoves, dishwashers, dryers, everything!\u00a0 but with only 15 minutes to work with, i did a rough pencil sketch, and went quickly to inks.\u00a0 but in the end, all i could muster was a lil toaster!\u00a0 this picture earned me runner-up for the night!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.finncomics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/07-appliance-contest.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"

finally, we close out the night with 2 &#8211; 10 minute sketches.\u00a0 for this one, i intentionally did not make it pretty.\u00a0 i wanted to draw every line i saw on the guy.\u00a0 every shadow, every feature.\u00a0 it&#8217;s a bit of re-training the eyes to see what&#8217;s really there, not what i expect to be there.\u00a0 quite liberating.<\/p>\n<p><a
