People on the Go III

Here's another one from my "People on the GO" series. I think I bungled her nose in this one. Not bad overall though.

Playing around

Here's another robot I was playing around with tonight. He's a little rough around the edges (literally). I was more just going through the motions than really working towards something great.

I do need some help though. I can't think of a good background for this bugger. I'm having that issue with these quick drawings (see other robot, and my IF-Suits).

Well if anyone has some ideas, please let me know

People on the Go II

I was into sketching people on the train for a little while. I have one that I posted up earlier.

Here's another one. I'm pretty happy with this one. I have a couple more ready just in case for the future. If anyone is really interested I'll post them up quicker.

Unfortunately, most of my drawings are of people sleeping. Seems like that's the top activity on the train in the morning or the afternoon. The only other pose seems to be a sour, or just a straight face. Hard to find some real emotion.

I think I'm going to start drawing on the train again. This time I'll try taking a different train car. Being a typical commuter, I'm a creature of habit and sit in the same car, most of the time in the same seat.

At any rate, let me know what you think!

Illustration Friday - Rejection

Here's my entry this week for Illustration Friday - Rejection. I sat and thought about it and had a couple of ideas. One of them was already done a few times (kids rejecting food). I didn't want to do a sad person sitting in a corner.

So the idea I came up with based around the actual point of rejection. I was trying to capture the moment of rejection; the expulsion of something unwanted, pushing away and getting rid of whatever.

I also figured I'd do something more abstract/figurative. Also seeing as my blog is called "Daily Charcoal" I figured I should do something using charcoal.

I believe the images above capture that. Let me know what you think.

People on the Go

Here's one that's actually brand spankin' new. I read online about sketching on the train. As weird and creepy as it sounds, it's actually kinda fun. Hopefully I won't get popped in the eye or anything else.

So here's a dude that's on my morning commute into *insert major metro area here* . He's actually quite older than what he looks like in my drawing. His nose isn't quite the same.
