The Robin request was specifically for the TEEN TITANS GO version, so I had to look it up. While in the middle of drawing it, I was questioning the double widow’s peak, and then realized that actually, Robin’s hair is an upside-down bat. Mind. Blown.
906. Deathstroke & Robin
905. Sue & Silk
So I’m doing sketches for people, and this timid, kindly older lady is watching me draw for someone else. When I finish, I look at her and ask her if she wants a sketch, and point out the remaining pre-mades as well. She asks if I can draw her. I do. I’m bad at likenesses, but she seems pleased. I think her name was Sue.
Unfortunately, that set off a bad precedent and then I had to draw two different girls and fucking baby, and then someone wanted a zebra and another wanted a cat. I should have put a stop to it immediately. Word to the wise, you want portraits or caricatures? Ok, but I’m not gonna do it within 5 minutes at a comic shop crammed with a thousand people trying to get free books.
Oh, and I drew Silk.
904. Chucky & Candyman
Here is the start of my sketch cards done during the event of Free Comic Book Day back in May. Some of these are not great. I was very shaky for some reason. I was also under some additional unforseen agitation that shall go nameless for an incredible majority of my morning.
I think I did around 30 live sketches for people, but only managed to take pictures of a little over half. Of those, I’m only going to the show the ones that were not repeats of the pre-made ones, so you don’t get to see 4 more Harleys or Deadpools, I’m afraid.
903. Pikachu
Here’s the last of the pre-drawn FCBD artist trading cards. It’s been a long, strange trip. Tomorrow, the cards I actually drew DURING FCBD begins.
902. Kinski
Ah, Kinski from the movie Nightbreed. As I was drawing these cards for Free Comic Book Day oh so long ago, Kinski was THE SINGLE SOLITARY CARD out of 120 cards that no one wanted.
So if you ever wanted to figure out Nightbreed’s place in pop-culture history, there you go.
901. Twelfth Doctor
I’m not good at likenesses.
