And here’s sketchbook fun with markers.

This might be a little auto-bio – but only on my grumpiest, most misanthropic days. Don’t worry, RL work people. If I’m ordering lunch for people, it’s because I don’t mind.

I saw this on The Mary Sue and loved it. My eye allergies sure did act up while watching it. Uh huh. Yep. Just eye allergies.

Sketches for Weregeek Guest Comic

maryvarn — Wed, 24 Apr 2013 17:15:14 +0000

Here are some sketches I did in preparing for the guest comic I did for Weregeek earlier this week. (Have you seen it? Read it here!) It’s very appropriate that I did all of these while at a day-long gaming session at a friend’s! We were playing Zombiecide while I doodled these in my sketchbook.

That sketch of Dustin ultimately made it in. I love that fat cat, but he’s kinda…deformed.

I wrote “Quinn” because we got into a discussion about NYC mayoral candidates and for some reason felt compelled to take notes I guess.

This made it in the final. It was fun to draw cats like real cats and not like little cat people, ala Chloe and Bink.

Chloe Bink Head Sketches

I’ve been sketching on paper more lately. I used to do it all the time, before computers really became a Big Thing! I don’t like that I have the urge to press command+Z every time I make a mistake putting pen to paper. Pushing past it with practice.
