Tommy Miller

I've been doing a lot of reading lately. All five books of A Song of Ice and Fire series. Then the Spenser novels. :D Somehow, Spenser inspires me to draw more than a fantasy like A Dance with Dragons. Maybe because A Dance with Dragons inspires people to paint and I'm horrible at painting. :D

Trooper Tommy Miller walks into Spenser's office in Small Vices and they have a fight. Spenser breaks Miller's nose with his knee. Afterwards, he sits him on a chair and gives him a wet towel to hold to his nose while it bleeds. :D

Ah, this book. It always makes me draw. ^_^

High Heart

I have been busy with many things the last few days, none of which needs to be discussed here. -_- I'm a worrier. I worry. I'm still worrying. Anyway, the good news is I finally got myself the Wacom. The bad news is I'm scared of it. :|

Also, due to some complications I can't use it on the PC where I am more comfortable drawing and where I have my CS5. Instead I must draw on the laptop, which has Photoshop 7 and a screen that I'm not very satisfied with, color-wise. -_-

I'm reading A Storm of Swords. There hasn't been much of a storm of swords anywhere in the book, except maybe at the Wall. While traveling in circles between Riverrun and King's Landing, Arya Stark comes to a haunted hilltop called High Heart where she meets an old dwarf who has green dreams. When I read the woman's description, I drew her. ^_^

 

The Port City Tap

Hello again! I'm sorry but my PS was acting up the last few days, so I couldn't present anything of interest. ^_^ Here's one project thats been sitting for too long in my head.

One Spenser Character everyday. :D Because they are all so well-described and you just have to pick up a pen and start drawing them.

In Spenser#21: Walking Shadow, Chapter 28, we meet the interesting characters at a pub called The Port City Tap - the barman Ed and an anonymous woman.

I don't like the second one much because PS crashed mid-way and I had to salvage it using MS Paint. I do however like the style. Drew her yesterday and him today. ^_^

Long time again

I had exams again. But I think I'm free now. 

Anyway, I'm still trying to warm up to drawing and coloring once again. While I struggle with this phase, here's what I tried doing and kinda failed.

 And I'm reading the Spenser detective series by Robert B Parker. He describes his characters in such an interesting way that I wanted to draw them. So below is Bradford W Forbes, his first ever client. This is from The Godwulf Manuscript.

 

I liked it sketchy. So I didn't clean it. :D
