So it's been awhile since I've done any sketching period... and since I was bored today I thought I'd give it a shot. The first one is just using a no. 2 school pencil on a sketch pad, the second one is color pencil on computer paper (I know, I'm real professional here Wink ), and then the third one is the colored one behind the plain sketch. Unfortunately, my scanner doesn't work and I used the camera so the pictures came out yellowed Sad . Hopefully I didn't make my favorite character look too bad Smile ...

Dear Shamrokchick Great pictures, especially for someone who has not been doing sketching for a while. thumbsup2 Too bad for the broken scanner, because I am sure the real pictures will look even better.

Nice work! You're braver than me -I've never tried to draw anyone in birdstyle, mostly from reluctance to deal with the visors, but you've done it so well!

Shamrokchick, those are awesome! It really looks like Ken (even without the Birdstyle) and you've captured his eyebrows and nose especially well. Bowdown

You are a very good artist Shamrokchick. I love how you drew Ken, although his eyes look sad to me. I wonder what has happened to upset him.

You know I was thinking the same thing!! I think because I drew his eyes too low and didn't arch his eyebrows enough lol... I had to redo his eyes like 10 times before I was satisfied and even then he still looks sad...

Once I thought I had his face right the visor part was pretty easy, but the shading was tough, especially since I tend to write dark...

I like the sadness in his eyes - its an interesting contrast to what you expect to see from him in uniform. Thanks for sharing your work!

Nice, Shamrock! This might be the first pic I've seen of Ken in his plane -not an easy thing to draw, but it looks great. He looks angry to me, like he just spotted Galactor and he's about to transmute, or contact Dr. Nambu.

I was thinking the same thing LB, he is getting ready to transmute after contacting(talking to) Nambu. Good Job Shamrock!!!

Thanks you all! Grin I didn't have a plan for this one, my friend just asked for Ken in his plane and mountains in the background... But I do like the serious expression he he, no more sadness...

The first thing that crossed my mind when I've seen was: " C'mon, take off!" Dead1 That's my face when I'm trying to start up the engine!
