Some stuff I do on the train coming and going from work:

Wouldn't it be the coolest if the faces you see in the trunks of trees started to come alive and stuff? They'ed probably be really grumpy and start moaning about the weather, they must really hate autumn, at least.

Oh man, these are so awesome! I definitely love your style. I can tell that you know your anatomy, so way to go! The only thing I can really say is to watch the shoulder widths; some of them have reeeaallyy narrow shoulders. Other than that, great work! :thumbsup:

Very cool sketches you got there Nathan! Since everybody seems to really like that pissed looking babe with the markings, any plans on painting her?

Oh btw, feet aren't any harder than hands if you ask me. You probably have less visual reference of them since you probably won't look at much at feet in comparison to other-body-parts-I-won't-mention-now-because-it's-not-required-since-we-all-know-what-I-mean. ;) Since you're doing life sketches, find yourself a nice foot model and sketch away!

Been drawing this great girl, anyone based in London should come along to these sessions, a great bunch of people and a really beautiful model - so much harder to draw:
