sketching

I'm never without anything to do, but I don't want to lose my drawing ability. This is the first sketch I've done since I broke my wrist. Still a little rusty, and I had to put my cast back on yesterday because my forearm hurt so bad. (Haven't done that since I first took it off either!) Admittedly, I did over do it a bit.

I couldn't decide what to draw for my first sketch in so long. In art class, we would always ask a person at the table, (comprised primarily of comic book artists,) "What to draw?" and they would pick something. I was sitting next to my nephew at the time, and I thot, "Wow! I have an incredible pool of creativity sitting right next to me." So of course, I turned to him and asked, "What to draw?" He immediately responded, "A golem." I asked, "Flesh, clay, stone, or iron," (the `primary' 4 I knew of from my D&D days...) to which he responded, "Stone." And I said, "Awesome, that's my favorite type." So that's what I drew. = )


His limbs are s'poseta be separated, held together and articulated by the `magic' used to create him. This would prolly make a lot more sense if it were properly inked and colored. I seem to have that problem with a lot of my sketches... But "Ain't nobody got time fo' dat!" xD j/k

Ideally, this'll be the first of many. Just gotta give my forearm another day-or-so to recooperate.
Also purchased my table for Roc-Con today! =D  (More on that soon...) So it's kinda `apropros' that I post this today as well.

(Still headlong into the Christmas special - trailer's up next - with a brief side-step to get the KickStarter for the book ready first.)
