Well, here's a fellow I just couldn't resist trying out. I don't usually do the happy party-going, smiley, teeth-showing type of drawing, but he's so cute - I thought I'd see what I could do with him. That - and I tried to update my blog, add google plus, change a few things, and played around till I totally screwed up our server somehow - so I figured I'd best stay out of trouble for the rest of the day.

Well, he's coming along. He'd almost look good unfinished - but its kinda late for that now. If I did the "unfinished look" I wouldn't want his jacket done quite so much. So there's no going back at this point. I've got to finish up the face later as well - after I see how dark the overall pic will be. The trick after that will be to not overdo him. Oh well - if I do - I'll maybe just do him again. I wonder who this guy is anyways. I might have to ask around.
I saw the cutest guy ever at the A&W yesterday - I just might search him out and get him to officially pose for me. I think I know who he is, but I'm not sure. He'd be a challenge, because I've never done tatoos before. Oh well - one thing at a time. I'll finish this fellow up first.
