This week’s sketch is a very quick warm-up doodle of actress Brooklyn Decker. I have no idea who Brooklyn Decker is or what shows she’s been in, but I ran across an interesting photo of her in a magazine that was begging to be drawn. READ MORE

LOST Ink Wash Sketch- Step by Step

May 21st, 2010 | Posted in Sketch O'The Week

As promised, here is a step by step of the ink wash sketch process I have been using for the sketch series of LOST characters over the last month or two. I’m afraid it’s not exactly scientific, so I don’t know how much people will get from it… but here it is regardless. Our subject again is Daniel Dae Kim as Jin Kwon. Pencil Sketch Here is the initial sketch (darkened to show up better on the screen). I lightly sketch out the caricature using a hard lead, in this case an “H” but a 2H or harder works fine. Ultimately you want the sketch… READ MORE
