Third attempt: Jimmy


Second attempt at digital inking

Again the prop was kinda more difficult than the character itself ,which was quite difficult too, but I can't manage to draw straight lines that are not really perfectly straight, using the tablet and the brush tool.

I didn't make this one in layers, but I'm trying to get the lines right first. Most of the lines are a little too thick, I will try to accentuate the differences in the next one. I now realize he has one toe too many in one of the feet.

Attempt at digital inking


Ok, this is my first serious attempt at digital inking and the very first in Illustrator so it is being quite hard. I put a lot of effort in the character faces but very little effort in the rest. I draw the chairs really fast this time. I used both Illustrator and Photoshop, since I still don't know how to do certain things in Illustrator. I hope that's not a problem. I shouldn't have drawn that line under...I believe he's Slab. Never quite learnt who is who yet.Now I realize I maybe made some of the lines thinner when I filled the blanks in Photoshop in the illustration bellow. I still don't know how to use the colouring in illustrator, I get some odd effects. I filled the blanks in Photoshop so I could show the finished drawing and not the layers. But maybe I should have change the order of some layers? We should see the table under Ernie's hands...

Inking Jim Smith







Here George should wear a sleeping hat instead of a fez, I just forgot it cause that's the first one I drew.

Sketch-O-Rama

I've been doing a lot of sketches. Why? Cause I'm pretty busy, but I enjoy doing this in my spare time. Maybe I should copy the originals a little more, I don't know. Anyway, some of those are actually copied from some Spumco cartoons that I was watching on youtube.



In this last one I tried to draw Sody based on a girl from the Dan DeCarlo Pin-Up Art book.
Some of these are from Spumco's commercials and flash cartoons:

Some Sody

Here is one of my own, it lacks some volume, her left eye and forehead are a little flat, but I think it's an almost decent expression.

I thought this one was quite decent, but I was wrong. It's a totally different drawing! Well, the model was a little too small, I guess.


Body should be more inclined. More "butty" so she looks sexier. Keep the "two hairs" shorter.


Face is not too bad. Hair should be shorter, mine smiles too much. The body should be longer, longer legs. The first half of her body is too low in my drawing. The skirt flows more in the original one.
