My first post in a while is a 'People watching' sketch. I saw a kid outside my apartment walking down the parking lot. He had some headphones on and looked pretty engrossed in his music. Pretty skinny guy, looked laid back... I decided he would fit well as an animal then human (since it's what I normally don't do in the first place). I was inspired the minute I saw him. It was fun to try to capture his personality. Speed sketching is one of my favorite things to do (even though sometimes I don't have enough time.)
Soooo, I was very bored at work and to past the time I started people watching. Indeed it's a very interesting and educational experience(especially when working at a theme park). The way people move and act can be hilarious at times..and also gives some great inspiration. At the top is a little girl that I saw walking with her parents. I don't know why I drew her as an animal, but when I saw her I just thought ' cute little bear'. The hippo below just expresses my emotion some part of that day. Bored.
Here again are some speed thumbnails I did. Just to get more familiar with BG's (since I rarely do them anyway).
