a quick warmup

My experiment with micron instead of ballpoint continues. Lots of pages with mixed results so far.

Just a page of monster doodles from the sketchbook with a nuclear color palette added as a bonus

This version has a slightly richer red than what I posted on deviantart. http://jharren.deviantart.com/#/d3gp8cm

a new challenge

I've decided recently to undertake a new challenge; I suspect my comfort with the ballpoint pen may be stunting (comfort is for old ladies!) SO in my daily field drawing and doodling I'm only going to use those tools that I use for my comic work. I'm trying to close the disparity between my comic pages and my sketchbook and I think this is worth the ol' college try. So it's microns, japanese pens, brush, brush pens, etc for drawing and the ballpoint is going to stay on the sidelines for awhile. So you folks can see my updates and let me know if my progress is pathetic or not.

Cheers!

*grey tones were added later in photoshop to help organize this mess.

Folks at the cafe. The one on the bottom left was an attempt at micron and the others are all my addictively comfortable ballpoint. I shall quite you one day ballpoint. One day...

An old warm-up with some color added.

I've been hittin' the cafes pretty hard lately.

doodlin' in the cafe. I do these in ballpoint and add colors later in PS for anyone who wasn't aware.

For a comic idea that's become far too grand to actually be feasible.

Drawn at the, now deceased, Borders cafe.

From the new brown-paper sketchbook. Now that I have one I'm not sure what to do with it. I'm not crazy about how it scans.
