Scream

Today's sketch is from a photo reference of a scream that I ended up turning into a surprised vampire in its death throes.



I wish I'd had the room to draw in the stake -- maybe now that I've scanned it, I'll add some clothing. Assuming I can figure out what I've done with all my pens and erasers -- they have all disappeared.

I'm still trying to figure out whether my scanner issues stem from my scanner or from some sketchbook ritual that I have unwittingly neglected. I guess I'll see how things scan once I've lit the nine candles and sacrificed the goat.

I like this a lot! Interesting suggestion of lighting you've created with simple ink lines. Nice job!

Thank you! I'm pleased with how this one turned out. It's one of the few felt-tip pen drawings I've done that isn't too stiff and boring.
