Daily 7 - Forakter motstanderen

I should draw Harald more.
Is not a character I like. I need to learn to appreciate him while working to the third draft, to enter in his mind and to understand his feelings.
At the moment I'm starting to appreciate more Chris.

Maybe I should do the first sketch by hand? I'm faster when I draw traditionally.

Daily 6

This was more funny to draw, and...

Brian has a new, original icon, in place of the word 'WAR', that was more related on a past and now discarded project.

Yeah, is inspired to 'V for Vendetta' icon, even if I do not agree with anarchist values. But at least it looks more familiar.

Also it should remember a ram head (his name is white ram)

Daily 5

I hadn't time to do something complex

Daily 4 - Å i Lofoten, paradise

The name of today was Bjørn.
So, Harald Næss will be the last, then another cycle...

I was getting tired soon of the thick lineart, I don+t like it very much. So today I tried a thinner and cleaner lineart.
I need to learn to avoid screentones. My drawing should look interesting without colours and screens, but at the moment I will work more on lineart.

Daily 3 - Biker Andreas Brushes

Andreas Brushes, Brian's father.
I don't draw him very much. He is a extremely calm character and is quite static when he acts. Is not only because of his size.
Draw so fat characters is difficult.

But as i said I need to learn to draw decently in little time.

Tomorrow I will change the way to do the lineart. I like thick lineart less and less.

Daily 2 - Vodka Belt

The second name I estracted was Olav.

The bald guy is the protagonist of strip comics about wrestling, and he is also named Olav, but since he is Russian (and a nostalgic communist, as you can guess from the symbol on his t-shirt), his name is probably pronunced in different way. His author is James Hornsby (here http://jameshornsby.com/ and here http://botchedspot.com/about/ )

It was a while I wanted to draw those two guys togheter, because they share the name and live in the 'Vodka Belt', and I took this occasion today

Olav Orlav (c) James Hornsby


PS - Olav Sørensen's name in english should sound like OOH-lahwv.
While I was in Norway I heard that name with my ears. It sounds so cute!!!

I don't know russiuan pronunciation - sorry.

I try daily sketch

http://alicesacco.deviantart.com/art/Daily-1-Brian-and-Chris-382100661

Now that I have completed all the main character of the story, I will attempt the daily sketch challenge.
I will try to give the right space to every single character.
At the same time I'll practice on the lineart and I'll try to learn to draw faster
I estract one name at day, and today was Brian's turn

So I start with something that show friendship between Brian and Chris.

I didn't like Chris when I started to draw him, but now he is becoming alive, and I appreciate him more.
