This is great

Thanks *Grin*

What sketchbook do you use? :D

This is beautiful. :D

This is by far my favorite brand and type of sketch book http://www.dickblick.com/products/c.....-sketch-books/

Good paper, heavy weight, not to toothy, and not to smooth. Excellent for both pencil and ink. But they are stupid expensive, so I rarely get these.

This was/is my current sketch book:

My current sketch book was a surprise, I had never used the Pentalic brand in a wire bound before. Really affordable (never more then $15), also good tooth, and medium weight paper, it served me well. While the usually art suppliers don't seem to carry it for some reason, I find them on Amazon, and Barnes & Noble (Sometimes).

I prefer 9x12 sizes and the 8x10 size as a fall back, and wire bound portrait cut (wire is down the side not the top, top is landscape cut), the wire bounds are just easier to manage when drawing and when scanning.

I am a bit of an art supply snob, if you can't tell *Grin*

And thank you *Bows*

I love the depth on this Art. Fantastic work!

Thank you *Bows*

yw, *returns bow*

Looks great :) More realistic and yet in keeping with the cartoony look.

Its all about the eyes and expressions.

Thank you *Grin*

Again Very Nice!!
Just what was the "feedback you so longed for."? If you don't mind my asking.........
I really think these are Great and hope to see more in the future!

The feedback was just that the drawing details were correct, and permission to move on to the painting it self.

I usually ask such of commissioners, especially on larger more expensive works. Saves me having to make corrections later, and/or disappointment from the commissioner. *Grin*

Well that makes a Great deal of sense!
I only asked because the same statement was on every pick and it struck my curiousaty.......it's not like I'm being nosey........now what did you have for breakfast on may 8th of last year?

Most likely a English Muffin with a small piece of grilled unseasoned chicken breast, an egg, and half a slice of Colby/Monterrey jack cheese. With a half cup of plain yogurt with half a banana chopped up and mixed in.

How do I remember, that is close to what I have every morning, and at that time I was hard into my diet, and only eating half portions of everything. I could not how ever tell you what I had for lunch or dinner that day as those meals are way more variable. *Grin*


And no your not being nosy, if you were I would not respond, divert the question with a change of subject, or just tell you so. *Wink*

I will usually answer any question honestly, and openly if asked.

WOW, what a memory! Half the time I don't remember what I ate yesterday Much less last year!

And I fully respect that!
Thank you for understanding.

And while on the subject, how is that diet going?
I've like you suggest and have already lost 15lbs myself!

In one year I have lost 100lbs. From 310 to 210 (roughly, I haven't weighed myself in a few weeks). *Grin*

Dude, That is Awesome!! Congratulations!

Thank you *Bows*
