Day 65: an anatomy chart

06.03.14: sfruggled with this one, but before you ask; yes it is based on an actual medical or anatomical chart from 1920. And yes, the female chart is wearing underwear... Come on!! They knew what common decency was in those days.

     Apologies to Doc Monster for using his character...ehm... Doc Monster...

Day 64: a leopard

05.03.14: had never drawn a leopard before so instead of going cartoony or making a joke of it, I was a slave to my reference and just went for it. (And, yes, honey, that is giving myself a break!) I am quite happy with the result.

     I haven't done a double page spread in a while and as the one I have just filled is quite interesting collection of styles and ideas, I figured I'd share. Kind if different, don't you think? Any favorites among the eight? Let me know.

Day 63: a sensitive cowboy

04.03.14: this was the only cowboy who would fit the bill!

     This is a tip of the hat to one of the master I grew up reading, Morris and to Bello for introducing me to Lucky Luke at a very early age! Thank you!

Day 62: David Bowie

03.03.14:  finish the lines;

 

     "You remind me of the babe!"

     "What babe?"

     "The babe with the power!"

     "What power?"

     "The power of voodoo!"

     "Who do?

     "You do!"

     "Do what?"

     "....     "

     Okey, I never considered myself a caricaturist. What I usually do is look at a lot of picture of the person in question, find as many other caricatures of him/her that I can and try to create a character based on all of these. This time around I discovered and owe a HUGE tip of the hat to Ken Knafou (kenknafou.blogspot.ie) whose Bowie caricature just inspired me.

     I was never a Bowie fan (love some of his work, but was never a fan... Sorry) but how can you not love The Labyrinth (1986... Now I feel old...), so that's why I went with Bowie the Goblin King!

     See you tomorrow!!

Day 61: a seagull

02.03.14: with this there was no choice but to go with my two favorite interpretations of seagulls; the seagulls from Pixars Finding Nemo and the pet of André Franquins Gaston Lagaffe (with apologies to both!). Any indications that I prefer one over the other is unintentional. There both engenius in there own way!!

     (And yes, I managed to draw on my birthday!!)

Day 60: a penguin

01.03.14: okey, so I was distracted while working on this and could have rendered it better but I still had fun!!!

     And if you don't get, your too young (never watched American beer ads...) and would take too long to explain. But just for clearity, that's what phones used to look like!!

Day 59: Charlie Chaplin

28.02.14: Jon Pay questioning a "Little Tramp" (or as I would call him the Genius) on the street.
