      @burvantill I've gotta get my rear in gear and do an entry for that prompt...

      I love all the muddy smeared paw prints šŸ˜„

            Waiter in Lillaz 4 smaller.jpg Waiter in Lillaz  variant smaller.jpg

            Just trying to produce more finished work so I can evaluate it and have it evaluated online. This is a waiter I saw in a (coffee) bar in a tiny mountain hamlet near Aosta, Italy. He looked fierce and eccentric and I thought he might make a good character. I am always torn, though, between whether to exaggerate for comic effect or whether to keep things relatively realistic.

            I didn't have much time to be on the forums while I was taking the Backgrounds course, but now I'll try to start posting and commenting again ā˜ŗļø.

                @Braden-Hallett I am so impressed by your work volume. You seem to produce more than one great thing a day. I’m curious, do you have a day job or school? I’m trying to decide if I’m just a slacker or not in comparison šŸ˜‚. 😬

                  @burvantill Thanks šŸ™‚ I don't have a day job right now. I spent a few years saving up some runway so for the past year and the next year I'm just gonna be drawing (apart from small, random freelance work)

                  So no, you're not a slacker šŸ™‚ I just draw all day.

                      @Braden-Hallett You're going to get grilled now, because I decided last night to ask you some questions too. šŸ˜›

                      1. I noticed that you said those are for warm up. Your characters look pretty well worked out. Do you set a time limit, or do you just go until you're happy?

                      2. Are those prompts from a random generator, or are you following some sort of public challenge?

                      The most recent 3 Point Perspective podcast made me think about focusing better on things that are relevant to my goals (which is art for my games). Character creation is a huge part of that, so what you are doing with those prompts seems right up my alley. Think I'm going to do a sub-par version of this to get the creative juices flowing each morning. Thanks for the inspiration!

                        @Braden-Hallett Such luxury! (Don't take notice of this little jealous monkey.) This is so cool to hear that you just took a break from everything to go with your passion! You're my hero of the day. šŸ†

                            @Braden-Hallett Your color choice is always amazing! You have a very personal and unique style. This happens whenever I leave my nephews to play alone. By the time I get back some one is in a head lock, haha!

                              This month I have been studying how to draw the head. A few of these are studies from life, others are studies from Andrew Loomis' book "Drawing the Head and Hands"

                                @SketchyArtish yay! Grilling!

                                1.) I have a set amount of time (2 hours) in the morning that I use for practice linework, a random character (or colour/texture study, I kinda waffle between the two) and work on a comic page. So I DO have a time limit, but it's kind of a loose limit, if you get what I mean?

                                2.)The prompts are from a random genny. Art prompts. I don't they update their site much anymore, though, which is too bad šŸ˜ž All kinda of neat prompts though for characters, monsters, environments, etc.

                                Glad I could help šŸ™‚ Targeted art practice is HARD. Another neat place to get character concepts it the character drawing subreddit. Lots of neat dnd characters n stuff.

                                    @Braden-Hallett Thanks for the info. Art prompts is where I got the idea for today. That site and Something to Draw are great for randomness. Went to Reddit and I'm already subbed to that one. I need to login to my art account more often! 😃

                                    There is just soooo much to learn with art. It really is tough not to chase squirrels and stay focused.

                                      @Braden-Hallett I'm impressed with your volume even knowing that you "just draw all day." As a person with a perfection paralysis/volume problem, I'm totally inspired to follow in your footsteps! This week's podcast also helped.

                                        @LauraA Thanks! Yeah, that was a particularly good episode of the podcast for me, too. I have the same analysis paralysis problem, too. I think it's just one of those things šŸ™‚

                                          @burvantill I like these a lot-it's a great prompt. My favorite is the second to the last one, followed by the last one.

                                            @cuquetafera These are very sweet and family-positive, which is perhaps what you're going for with some adverts for a doula.
                                            I think your choice of brown (vs traditional) back outlines is interesting-and gives them a fresh look.
