Here’s another little drawing of Sparta Puss from September 2017. I did a lot of sketching with a Markers app on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 back then, until I got bored with it and went back to analogue. I’ve never gone back.

I did a lot of sketching with a Markers app on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 back then, until I got bored with it and went back to analogue.

Here’s a digital drawing of Sparta Puss from September 2017. I was experimenting with a Markers app on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8, getting used to it. I did a lot of digital drawings for a while, then I got bored with it and went back to analogue drawing.
