It is a little grotesque, but it´s funny... Liked to do this one. 30 min, photoshop, and my mouse... Soon i´ll be better equiped and spend more time on my sketches.

Tried a different style this time. Was trying to be faster, but I guess I wasn't... Pretty happy with the results though.

Not arm but hands.

It's a quick sketch with a ballpaint pent, just a few minutes.

J_Grieve -- Awesome! Did you use reference on those gorillas? They're nicely stylized.

Kallinn -- I love your style, especially the guy's face.

Nice work, all!

unintentional double post (me=newbie :) ) sorry. See first page for my sketch

[Norante]

I really had no more time to put into this idea, so here it goes as it is now.
By the way, nice to see the Sketch of the Week project going at full steam after so long :D

Sir Lumps, I've always liked those sort of, what if, approaches. Just like yesterday, quite refreshing. You remember the Twilight Zone Pig Episode? Yeah, that was bloody freaky...

[Art2]

Nice work guys!

What to do on new years eve? How about watching Porco Rosso and sketching a wierd mutant pig, awsome.

PhotoShop, took about 1hr 40min on this one. Some really funny images there guys, nice paintwork FridayEve.

Edit: (I should point out that I looked at some reference photos while making both my sketches.)

I like turning an idea like that around :) . Haven't seen the TZ though, was it cool?

[Reinier]

So many good ones :thumbsup:

its appalling to see you guys make such great "sketches" in such a short time. I spend hours and hours and it still looks like shit. But maybe i when i just keep trying, my 2d scribbles will look 3d, persuasive and made in a way more considerable short time.

What are you talking about? This post is really excellent! A very funny and warped take on the idea too. As for getting better, its a matter of practice. That's what the DSG is for. It gives you a fresh idea every day so you can keep working on your skills. Others comment and help you improve, and you see their work to get other ideas of style. Just keep hanging around and sketching.

But you are definately far too humble. This sketch ROCKS!

:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
Thank you kind sir! The deformed cat is supposed to be doing the Joey from 'Friends' cat version of "How you doin'?" Glad someone picked up on his expression.

Took me a while to notice the "wrong sided thumb" Very funny post, tho...love that alien dude.

[zng-Y]

hey guys,

Fast one (40-50 min.) , first time using a tablet.
I know it sucks, especially when you see all the great paintings in here:love:
Drumwhore: man thats just sooo awesome! (got MSN? I think we speak the same language :))

Thank you, you are too nice. I know what you said is all true; ive been lurking here around a lot. Its just that i underestimated the time in how fast i would get it done. It took my whole evening and morning and i still see flaws. I guess practise is the key here.

[thebigxer]

Times are usually exaggerated here, youll get used to people saying it took them like an hour but its usually a litte more then that.

I myself think only 20 mins have passed but then i look at the clock and 2 hours have gone by.

[Reinier]

I'm baffled by the apparent ease many people here can draw human faces with a good expression. Me on the other hand suck at the shading of the face (as you can see from my entry on the second page of this thread) and giving it the proper volume. i hope to do more character work with the DSG.

[DaPrato]

hum, thats my tired brain, give to him this weird result. Hope youll like it.
Critics and comments will be apreciate. Thx. Bravo to the anyone !...
