Another version of Joe, this one taken to more of an extreme. He's kind of ugly, but I kind of like him that way.

Three evening warmups. Joe Flash was a character that came out of nowhere. I don't draw him much, just when I'm in a particular mood. Though he's generally very stylized, I was using reference tonight which totally changed how I approach making him. I don't think it's better or worse, just different. There's nothing like a little ink in the evening.

This is one of the main reasons I like working in Illustrator. The smaller image is the actual size and the other is a blown up version. I often do details in 300-600% mag so I can get them right. I'm likely making more work for myself than is necessary, but it makes me happy.

Just a bit of warmup.

One more for the day.

Morning warm up. Have to learn to draw the coyote in the style of the new comic.

A page of one of the other things I'm working on. In progress.

Back and forth on this... like a lot. Just got back from Italy, which was very cool. This is my first drawing in a long while. I did one sketch while away. I just generally never draw while on vacation. Anyway, putting stuff aside can sometimes help me see things more freshly later on. Lots of thought going on about the bunnies as well as everything else. Have to finish the Crawford story by the end of October which is a whole other kind of style. It's like having to utterly change clothes as I go from project to project; it's awkward and takes me time to get ready. Should just choose the one style and be done with it. Huh. Anyway, this is Benny again though I'm trying to bring back some of the lost detail as well as go with a face that seems to be more unique, less general. This project has to wait, though. Too much else to do.
