Day 139: Monkey Business

I've fallen quite a bit behind due to a variety of reasons, but I will still try to post as often as possible, even if it isn't every day!

Days 134 and 135: Cap and Hulkbuster

I was a bit lax this past weekend due to my girlfriend being in town, so here are a couple drawings. Expect more than one the next few days as I try and play catch-up. You'll notice that these were done in a progression, and I hope to keep adding new heroes. I was originally going to post one with Thor, but he is still a work-in-progress. Also, if these don't look like the characters you're familiar with from the movies, it's because I'm drawing alternate costumes. Nerd status.

Day 133: Things to come

I'm starting work on something more long-term, so you may notice that some of my entries are the same drawing, just more refined/added to. In the end, I'm hoping it becomes something very cool.

Day 132: Rough draft

Contemplating a very big project. This may be a piece of it, or at least some brain storming/a rough draft of part of it. Trying to get the right style down for it, not quite satisfied.

Day 131: Grifter

As per my friend Jonas's request, the hero Grifter.

Ps- I promise to stop using blue and actually color some of these again soon.

Day 124: Me!

I messed around with the brush I use in Photoshop (yay technical knowledge!), and I've really been liking it for doodling comics.

Day 123: Samurai

There's a lot of old manga (Japanese) comics that contain some really impressive art. This piece was kind of inspired by that.

Days 118, 119, and 120: Rapid fire!

Today's drawings are all football related; the first is Johnny Manziel (unless you're a sports fan, you're not gonna get the joke), the second is Bill Belichik, and the third was going to be Bill Cowher, but sorta mutated into just a regular ol' ticked off old man.






Quick Update

I've missed the past couple of days due to work and a busy schedule outside of work. Please bear with me as I adjust, and I promise I'll have new drawings posted soon!

Day 117: Mo' money, mo' problems

I started a new job yesterday, which, when coupled with other daily tasks, leaves a little less time to do my drawing. I assure you this was finished this doodle of Indiana Jones yesterday (while watching The Last Crusade), just didn't get a chance to post it! Expect another sometime after 6 o'clock tonight.

Day 115: The North Remembers

Haven't done anything Game of Thrones related in a while. So here's a big image that can be used as a desktop wallpaper, if you're so inclined. I didn't optimize the dimensions, so your results may vary (particularly if you're viewing it on a smaller screen).


Day 114: Another late one

Sorry about this! Was visiting my girlfriend yesterday and didn't get a chance to post a drawing. The second post (Day 115) will be up shortly as well.

Day 113: The Wolverine

My own take on Wolverine. A little rough, but I had to sneak this one in before my midnight deadline.

Day 112: Captain America

For some reason I really struggle to come up with a Captain America drawing that I really am pleased with. In any case, I messed with some of my settings in Photoshop in order to try some new stuff.

Day 111: Menacing Batman

Being a comic book artist would be so cool. That said, I'd probably have to get a lot better at drawing my characters actually doing something.

I also wanna toss this out there: if anyone has any requests, I'd be more than happy to take a crack at them. Just shoot me an email to goirish3590@gmail.com.

Days 106, 107, 108, and 109: Vacation catch up!

106: Ron Weasley


107: Kvothe (from The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss)


Day 108: Peeves from Harry Potter


Day 109: Mario having a drink


And now, back to your regularly scheduled Drawing-A-Day!

Days 103, 104, and 105: Sorry!

So I've been lazy the past couple days, mostly because I've been on vacation. It's been beautiful out (despite sunburn and swimmer's ear), so drawing has fallen by the wayside slightly. I do, however, have a few drawings done throughout the past few days, and I apologize for the quality. They were done hurriedly and on a tiny yellow legal pad. I'm here for until Sunday still, so unfortunately this will have to do for now!

Day 102: Joker

Arguably the creepiest piece I've done. Based on a pretty famous picture of Heath Ledger for The Dark Knight. In terms of looking just like Ledger, I wasn't overly successful, but in terms of creating a creepy Joker, I think I did alright.

Day 100: Thank You!

Thank you so much for following me over the past 100 days! You guys really encourage me to keep going, and it means a lot to me that you follow the blog.

Day 99: The Dark Knight

I kinda like drawing on a black background sometimes, as previous drawings would suggest. It makes it a little easier to get a sense of realism (though not necessarily in this drawing, due to the exaggeration of the eyes). Still, fun.

Day 98: Dr. Mario Virus's

Another drawing based on Reddit's SketchDaily topic for today, which was "Viruses." These are the viruses featured in Nintendo's 1990 game Dr. Mario.

Day 95: Snail

Running a little short on time today, so here's a small picture of a snail:

Day 94: Harry vs. The Goblet

Another Harry Potter drawing: this one involves Harry's first attempt to transform a goblet into a bat. Things do not go as expected.


Day 93: A little late...sort of

Last night I was hanging with some friends and didn't get home until after midnight; that said, I have three witnesses who can testify that this drawing (of Kanye West wearing Chewbacca's fur, a line from his new album) was completed last night prior to midnight.


Expect another drawing later today.

Day 92: Ron Perlman

I think Ron Perlman is one of my favorite actors, due in no small part to his willingness to be a part of just about anything.

Day 91: Harry and Cho

I'm glad that Harry ends up with someone other than Cho. She always seemed weird.
