I finally feel like I’m developing the right look for Carl’s hair. Sally’s hair, on the other hand, is becoming frustrating. I need to go back and look at the best versions of it and draw from those as reference for a while. And for poor Marshall, I should really get a model of his head so I can draw the shapes right from various angles. But my inking is so shaky these days, I’m not sure that would matter much. At least I’m using the slop to emphasize the expressions effectively!
Last night, I dreamt that I was trying to ink using a brush pen that had bristles that were as long as the handle, and it was running out of ink. The dry brushing effect it was having was awesome for the project I was using it for, but it was rapidly becoming useless. This dream tells me that I’ve been drawing almost enough lately. At least for the purposes of practice!
