Sketch-A-Day #7

Today's song is Gorillaz' "El Mañana"! It's funny, I had listened to Demon Days this morning and then when I sat down for the sketch this song popped up again as the random track. Neat! I wanted to draw a robotic cowboy, resting by a tree after a long day's rustling.

Sketch-a-Day #6

Today's song: Anamanaguchi - "Power Supply"

Had to do something cartoony for this track :)

Sketch-A-Day #5

This cosmic entity was inspired by Cynic's "Uroboric Forms" rather literally. Enjoy!

Inspired by "E-Pro" by Beck.. Wandering the lands mending people's computer woes, this dude is an electronic professional. And he's got the jaunty swagger to prove it.

Sketch-A-Day #2

Missed yesterday-- d'oh! Great start, right? Anyway: The song was Santana's "Say It Again", which brought to mind a creature with many mouths. This turned into a skeletal creature with a cape and a conspicuous number of skulls. Enjoy the Skull Baron! The top skull kinda looks like Red Fang's logo.

Sketch-a-Day #1!

Hey there! I'm doing a creative exercise thingy along with my buddies Eric Stirpe and Joe Rothenberg. The idea is a daily 45-minute character sketch inspired by a randomly-selected song.

Today's is inspired by the title of Hacride's "Fate"-- I instantly thought of some kind of cosmic alien bureaucrat who keeps track of the strands of destiny with his fancy clipboard. I present to you the Fate-Scribe:
