Ms. Paint Returns

Read into this whatever you want.
I know what it means.
And you don't.
So there.

Watch Me Draw 2: Draw Harder

Watch me do my thing.

I've had this line stuck in my head for the last couple of days.

WIP


Started working on one of the sketches yesterday. This is the color mock up of the piece so far.

Also, Lupe Fiasco's The Cool is pretty awesome I must say. Better than Food & Liquor? Only time will tell.

Some Bond-esque women. I very much enjoy the one with the guns. The other is the start to a personal piece I'm working on for portfolio reasons.

Back to sketchin'

I'm starting to wonder if doing a sketch a day for this blog is better or worse than changing the format to a finished illustration every 2-3 days. The problem with the latter idea is the high possibility of falling off schedule.

Something to ponder.

Only 10 more. Get em while they're hot.

In other news, Hajime no Ippo (i.e. the boxing manga I've been reading for the past couple of months) is amazing. The last couple of chapters dealt with Ippo finally facing Sendou for the japanese title belt. What a fantastically drawn and scripted fight.

For Serious.

Apparently Raekwon & Ghostface dislike the new Wu Tang Album. Mostly due to RZA's production. Ghostface went so far as to call it "wack".

My opinion will be formed later when I listen to it in it's entirety.
