More Brush Drawings

My experience with the Pentel Pocket Brush pen (highly recommended, by the way) has led me to try drawing with an honest-to-goodness sable brush. Specifically, the Series 7 sable brushes from Windsor & Newton. My lines don't quite have the polish of a Jeff Smith or Charles Burns, but already they are more expressive than what I ever got from my Microns. Besides, despite the initial difficulty in use, inking in brush is great fun.

I'm using brush sizes 0, 2 and 3 on vellum bristol board from Bee. I like the tooth of this paper better than the Strathmore 300 series that has recently seemed to drop in quality.

This set includes head studies for a character in Journeymen as well as a hero pose from one of the leads. Also, I've added a random sketch where I tried my hand at a wash for shading.

And again no--not quite the polish of a Jeff Smith or Charles Burns. But I'll get there. Enjoy.

These shiny happy little guys were done for a create-a-card set put out by Mudpuppy. When they contacted me to do this project and design a bunch of my own robots, i said "affirmative!"... that's robot speak for "yes". If anyone is interested in getting a set of these guys check out the Mudpuppy site.
