The dreaded lurgi is getting a little bit better each day but I’m still finding it hard to do much and that includes drawing. My brain’s like mush and doesn’t want to tell my hands what to do, so I’ve been searching through my old sketchbooks to blog some blasts from the past. About 5 years ago I went through a Marvel / DC phase of life drawing, putting my models into a comic book format. I liked the effect but it was a hack of a challenge to draw because if I made a mistake, the whole thing was ruined. Good discipline! Here’s our tattooed model who is a retired science teacher, drawn into an A3 sketchbook, using the double pages.

These are great
Thank you 🙂
sorry to hear you are still lurgified! Love the life-drawing-comic, though! Blimey, what a lot of work. I think it’s so good you should also put in captions and the occasional speech-bubble 😀
Thanks. I’ve been working on a huge version with just male nudes on a piece of A1 paper
Long live the Lurgi. I’m totally enjoying your old stuff. This one is great!!! Love the comic book style; something I’m pursuing too, in a way.
aaarrrggghhh – NOT loving the lurgi! I managed to get out of the house for less than an hour today and it corpsed me! Fed up now. Don’t do ill. Husb is nagging me to put all my archives onto my website, which needs some serious updating. I’ll get stuck into it this week if I’m still this ill. Glad you’re enjoying the old stuff 🙂
These are amazing, and look straight out of a comic book. I’m trepid of drawing the graphic novel/anime style as I cannot seem make the right line first time, always a little wobbly…
The only thing you can do is take the plunge and go for it 🙂
