Another one bites the dust

Yet another Meerkat added to the family line up, maybe 3 or 4 more to go. they seem to be getting easier the more I draw them, wish it was like that every time I picked up a pencil....

Three down not sure how many more to go...

First three Meerkats completed except for the usual tweaking, not sure how many more I'm going to add, but will stop when it looks balanced...

Pencil and Eraser

As you can see the pencils have been out and another Meerkat is taking shape, what you can also see is that the Eraser has been hard at work removing the fur from the first Meerkat, I wasn't happy with the way the fur looked, just not realistic enough for me, so instead of scrapping the drawing and starting again I have Erased what I didn't like and started again, this time I'm a lot happier with the effect, hope you agree....

Meerkats

Its some time since I posted any work, mainly due to the fact that I've found it hard to get motivated... anyway here is the first part of a group of Meerkats I'm attempting to draw, not sure how long this will take to complete but I'm hoping to have it finished before the London Olympics....lol

Lions Again!

I have revisited and redrawn the pair of Lions I used in my last commission piece which was a present for my brother in laws 50th birthday. This time I have drawn them larger and without any background etc, I feel they are strong enough to stand on there own, these will be mounted and framed and shown at the Eastwood Library for the whole of January 2011, with approx 12 more of my drawings. as you can see i've included a close up shot as Im always asked to show more detail, the finished drawing size is approx 20 x 8 inches, drawing time approx 20 hours, and drawn on Mellotex as always...
