Sketches
|
Thaddeus WhinnsBrocc, an Angry Badger. Mechanical pencil.
|
Jess absentmindedly scratching her right boob whilst having a drink.
Mechanical pencil and colored using PSP with an optical mouse.
|
Grace explaining to Simon about a mysterious crank.
Scanned from an inked pencil rough.
|
Rachael examining her tail. Looks just fine to me...
Mechanical pencil.
|
Rachael and Clare together. They're *supposed* to be
identical twins... hmm... I've always wondered if a Rabbit
would do rabbit-ears on their friends/family when posing.
I still don't know, because, Rachael and Clare are not
Rabbits - they're Hares. BTW, Rachael is on the left.
Mechanical Pencil.

I had a really tough time visualizing Linda's head structure.
I even went so far as to make a life-size clay model of her
face and sketch from that - this is the result. Still having
trouble, as you can see.
Mechanical pencil
|
The inimitable Linda! Dragging her romantic and reluctant prospect
Steve to parts unknown (to him at least).
Mechanical pencil
|
Jess tormenting Iggy once again. I like the sentiment of this picture,
but I think I made Jess' legs way too long. I fixed that in the
color version, however.
Mechanical pencil
|
Jess gaining Ig's attention in the only way she knows how - by tormenting
him. Except for the painful aspect on his ears, he honestly doesn't
mind.
Mechanical pencil
|
Geoff ThistleBoar rendering a non-verbal opinion on some topic or other.
Despite its simplicity, this sketch is one of my faves.
Mechanical pencil.
|
Clare MarchHare - one of my better drawings, especially for an earlier work.
Quite pleased with how it came out.
Mechanical pencil.
|
Paulus giving Annette a, erm... hand with the beer. Sadly, I had to
blue-line Annette in cold blood. Maybe in one of the sequels, though...
Mechanical pencil
|
Typical domestic bliss at the Black Kettle pub.
Mechanical pencil
|
Desiree makes an anatomical comparison between her hands to those of a
typical Vulpan.

This is probably one of the better roughs I did of Linda during my
early days of drawing.

having him wear a lavender ascot.

Slightly Better Than Sketches
|
Jess tormenting Ignatius in her own special way. She's just about to let go... now!
Sploosh! Ig goes for a swim. Done with about 4 photos doctored together and the characters
drawn with an optical mouse.
|
Linda with a big man between her legs. Digital tablet PC, Sketchbook Pro.
|
Ink on paper, colorized with Sketchbook Pro.
|
Poor, lost Evangeline Proudfoot (a girl with hair of extraordinary
redness) points the way to some help.
Digital mouse.

This is a scene that was later deleted. Pete (formerly Paulus)
and Geoff are at the fete and Geoff is trying to win a plush bear
when Pete notices an unscrupulous barker.
Optical Mouse
|
Annette is excoriating Jess to keep a civil tongue in the pub as Ignatius looks on.
Annette was later written out of the story, and the scene was
re-written with Pete instead of Annette.
Optical Mouse

Jim, the Handsome Librarian.
Tablet PC

A very rough map of The Kingdom.
