Page panels

  Hello all!

 So I drew the roughs out on a sheet of paper took a photo put it in sketchbook pro and then reworked it into something I liked and is almost finished. For the very first time I then took it into clip studio paint to add some solid blacks! I was very excited. I have one panel left to do but I fancy a quick bike ride for some crisps.

 Of course I bought a Wayfarer album today.

 Really pleased with how this page and clip studio are turning out.

 Have a great day.

Clip studio doodle

  Afternoon all.

 So I spent the morning trying to get to grips with Clip Studio Paint (I've had it long enough) and R has raved about it in the past. 

 I enjoyed playing with it but I'm going to need to spend a lot more time with it to make it my go to doodling program.

 Anyway, here's the latest clip studio doodle.

 Have a great day.

One more doodle

  Afternoon all!

 So here's the final doodle of the month (I think). While I was ill it was fun to blast through sketchpads just doodling head shots but I'm bored now and I've probably bored you, sorry.

 Next month there will be a lot of different types of sketches/doodles/comic pages.

 Have a corking day!

Wayfarer are amazing

  Hello all.

 I so I have a new death metal band I'm loving (cheers G) and that is of course Wayfarer who seem a delightful bunch of chaps.

 Not sure how many more of these doodles are left but I'll keep going until I run out.

 Have a splendid day.

Teens and taxes

  Morning all.

 We have one off (ill apparently but chatting up quite a storm) an the delightful K downstairs doing exciting things with the door closed and lots dark mutterings.

 Enjoy a wonderful day!

We won

  Hello all.

 So we won yesterday but as I'm still heartbroken about Klopp none of it mattered (except that we won and the young lads played well).

 Have a great day.

Its Monday!

  Hello all.

 Here are the final bunch of inked doodles from a recent sketchbook. As I'm trying to make up for the month's lack of posts I'll be posting them separately  to try and make up ground.

 Have a super day.

I finished a couple of pages!

  Hello all.

 So I'm still recovering but managed some drawing and I've been up all day, although I'm flagging now.

 Enjoyed doodling on the tablet and that's a huge plus for me.

 Have a super day.

Klopps leaving!

  Hello all.

 Such a sad day. I knew that he'd leave one day .. but not at the end of the season. He's enriched all the LFC family and he'll be missed. All I can hope is the team destroy in every competition for the rest of the season.

Feedback Finally!

  Evening all.

 The delightful K is writing or editing downstairs with the ginger loon helping.

 I'm upstairs planning out a couple of pages for tomorrow. I did some digital inking this morning which was fun and I quite liked the end result but tomorrows page needs a little more thought.

 Here are some of the wonderful K's flats.

 Have a lovely day.

I need crisps!

 


I may amble out with the gals

  Afternoon all!

 As I'm waiting for the client to get back to me I may.. I may go for another wander with Honey AND the delightful K.

 Here's another inked doodle.

Added backgrounds

 Hello all.

 It's a rubbish afternoon waiting for a client to get back to me and lashings of rain. Anyway to make the day pass that much quicker I'm listening to the Why Files and adding some ink to some doodles.

 I'll probably post several of these as I enjoyed not only drawing them but also inking them!

 Have a great day.

Chucking it down

  Morning all!

 Hope you're all enjoying a super day so far. I've walked the hooch while feeling utterly ***** and done a couple of long overdue page roughs. 

 Here's a scribble I found in some scrap paper on my desk. 

 Have a wonderful day.

Last one for the day!

  Hello again.

 So I started a new sketchpad last night and roughed out around 20 or so headshots of various chancers and characters of which the below doodle is one. There's something quite lovely about quickly sketching out a head in red pencil and then moving onto the next page in a hurry. I happily inked a bunch of the pages this morning before starting a comic page, just very quick ink lines using a dying brush pen that the delightful K brought back from America. I shall be looking on Amazon for some more in the very near future.

 So here's the last doodle of the day.

 Have a super day!

I need some sweets! (and several new sketchpads)

  Hello again.

 I've just eaten my last Kit Kat (after sharing with the wolves last night), so I need to go and get some more from the nearest town.

 After many nights of not sleeping the plan today is knacker myself out and go to bed early so I can crack on with some more work in the morning.

 Dog walk, kettlebell and a bike ride should come close to killing me.

 Have a super day.

Ink splashes!

  Afternoon all (again)!

  My delightful K has just helped me spell a word and is now downstairs dealing with something more complex than a malfunctioning partner!

 LFC won last night 0-4 all the goals came in the second half, Jota and Nunez bagged a brace each! Loads of youngsters on the bench and on the field.

 I've found a channel that has New Tricks and Lovejoy at the press of a button, how lucky am I?

Doodles abound!

  Hello all.

 I'll be doing a couple of posts today I think as I have a bunch of doodles that I can show. These are just sketchbook doodles to get me back in the flow of drawing again after almost a month of being in bed with a horrid cough and back pain (ah, the delights of getting older).

 Any hoo I'll post a few to make up for the lack of January blog posts. And of course a huge 'sorry' to all my clients waiting patiently for my return to the drawing table (of doom).

 Have a great day!

Fingers crossed

 for no blue photos today.

 Very little if any storm damage on view during this mornings wander with the hoochie.

 Have a super day.

 Have a great night.

So I ran out...

  .. of chocolate and the ever so beautiful K took my into town where we had a coffee and a quiet natter about zombies and tik tock.

 Evening all.

 Another doodle from this weeks sketchpad.

Hello again!

  Hello all.

 Sorry for the delay in getting some new doodles to you but I'm not terribly well.

 Having said that Honey and I had a 3 hour wander this morning and I'm now bad in bed.

 Cough cough.
