The following are a series of sketches done primarily during my 30 minute lunch breaks when I don't feel like eating anything.
_______________________________________________________________________
April 14, 2011. K'Modo the Tiefling rogue/Daggermaster. Based on my ongoing D&D Eberron character.
April 1, 2011. Orc rogue. Hard to motivate for this one, wasn't entirely enthusiastic, but I like how the cowl conceals his eyes.
March 25, 2011. Predator. Done from memory, the mandibles and mouth are probably off from canon as I couldn't quite remember the exact properties. This one took a long time if only because of filling in the hair/dreads.
March 16, 2011. Another dragon, with more time spent over multiple sessions.
Not really happy with the front upper lip, but overall fairly pleased.
March 7, 2011. A dragon I'm pretty happy with, finally tried and (feel I) succeeded on the 'sprouting keratin" type horn. I took a break from workplace sketches for a bit, due in part because of working the holidays in retail makes me want to use my lunch breaks for sitting comatose on a couch, and also a bit of burnout in the underground work lunch sketch scene.
Currently working on a similar dragon, different angle, and it's turning out well.
December 3, 2010. I had a Trandoshan (Bossk, the lizard-y bounty hunter on the bridge of the Executor in Empire) in mind starting this, but it could be any kind of reptilian humanoid... the thing that Kirk fights, fuck, I don't care. Turnaround is getting shorter on these.
November 30, 2010. Jersey Shore would be watchable if they looked like this.
November 24, 2010. Another creepy head, this one a bit less human, and I enjoyed trying to get the overbite right. I have to say I look forward to my lunchbreaks each day, not to eat or even the 30-minute reprieve from work, but only to add a couple hundred more strokes to this series. I post them on the wall near my desk, and I'm considering pushing the envelope of how unsettling I can make these before I'm told to take them down. Heh.
November 19, 2010. A subsequent attempt at bottom lighting, a little cleaner. I'd like to start some paintings with similar content, but I'm not sure how to approach the line style, or if they would even translate well. At any rate, the painting bug is itching again.
.November 15, 2010. Playing around with bottom lighting, and keeping the eyes white because I know it creeps people out.
2010 November, Creepy Old Dude. Maybe not creepy. Maybe just drunk or something. Or just old.
November 11, 2010 Old Lady. I know she has white eyes, deal.
2010 October, Grabby the Zombie. I was on a zombie kick in October, weird.
2010 November. I'd be mad too if somebody <ahem> forgot to put anything on my headstone.
2010 November, Zombie! Poster rough for my upcoming feature length film, Zombie! Starring Jennifer Love-Hewitt and Wilford Brimley.
2010, An Alien Head. Sometimes it's fun to just start drawing an alien and let the anatomy take you along odd paths. I like this guy.
2010, Dragon. One of my better dragons, if only because I had the foresight to make the inside of his throat all glow-y like he's about to turn some hapless paladin into a pile of briquettes.
2010, Sad Devil-Dude. I had my Tiefling Rogue, K'Modo, in mind when I worked on this guy. This is probably what he looked like before he was horribly cursed by an aberrant Dragonmark, which is why he wears a creepy executioner's hood now.
2010, Alien/Demon.
2010, Robot face. I try to mix up drawing tech and organics, admittedly tech is really hard for me to capture properly.
2010, Dinosaur-Thing. One of the first work sketched I did when I started using lunchbreaks for drawing. I later, strangely, did an X-rated version for some reason. I just went there, I don't know why.
2010, Snakeman/Yuan-Ti.
2010, Self-Portrait. I really don't look like this, except for the scratchy, goblin-y parts. It also reminds me I need to do a more recent self-portrait than what is in the upper left corner of these pages, as I don't have nearly that much hair anymore, and may even appear slightly less surly.
2010, Fuck If I Know. Pac-Man eating and farting, a fly overjoyed at the discovery of a pile of turds, and a portly demon. I swear, pot doesn't work on me, I've tried.
2010, Goblin. What is it with goblins?
2010, Devil Dog. I'll be the Keymaster, if you'll be the Gatekeeper.
2010, Lich. Done over a few lunches, an undead fellow. Pleased with it, but I regret adding the facepaint, because it just looks like he's drooling blood. Which is fine, undead sometimes do that, but I was going for a more refined, "I can disintegrate you with my mind" look for this gentleman.
2010, Old Folks. I've had some recently drawing comic elderly, maybe it's something I can mine for a comic idea... Look out, Marvel, here comes your new cash cow! Ugh.

Everything from here down was done when I used to cashier, probably around 2004-2005, a few lines at a time between customers. Look closely, and you may discover the PLU to numerous Produce items.
