Bird styles are ready for paint, on to the civies version! Again with the graphite rendering for watercolor prep. Because I want to make damn sure I like those shadows before I make them permanent. #drawing #lineart #pencildrawing #illustrationinprogress #fanart #gatchaman #anime #oldschoolanime #guardiansofspace #battleoftheplanets #scienceninjateam #scienceninjateamgatchaman #kentheeagle #joethecondor #juntheswan #jinpeitheswallow #ryutheowl #artistsonpatreon #illustratorsoninstagram #artistsoninstagram #samantha_johnson_art

Still have a LOT of work ahead of me on this character sheet. But this is a start! 12-year-old Joe still needs hair. Haha it's probably going to be a mess. 😆Now I just have to finish filling in 13-17. Yepp. Puberty is gonna hit this kid like a brick wall. #drawing #drawingpeople #pencilsketch #anime #oldschoolanime #saturdaymorningcartoons #guardiansofspace #joethecondor #gatchaman #battleoftheplanets #charactersketch #charachtersheet #artistsonpatreon #artistsoninstagram #illustratorsoninstagram #samantha_johnson_art

Giving the Condor's face a little consistency since he was apparently animated as 8 different people. 😆 This is the fourth time I've completely restarted my Joe head sketches reference sheet. My aim is to keep the same face, but still pull heavily from the original animation in both expressions and stylization. That...is a lot frickn harder than it sounds. I'm still pretty happy with those crossed arms though. God they were annoying to draw. Also, no action trash sketches for a bit. Hopefully I'll be back on track this week. Of course I'm moving in 15 days. So that's gonna turn everything upside down. Again. Wheeeeee! #drawing #draweveryday #sketching #charactersketch #drawingfaces #scienceninjateam #gatchaman #joethecondor #gforce #battleoftheplanets #anime #oldschoolanime #illustratorsoninstagram #artistsoninstagram #artistsonpatreon #samantha_johnson_art

It's been a crap week. Both parental units are still recovering from mystery illnesses, and that plus regular project stress, plus running late on my own project schedule stress, plus the fact that I am MOVING to Wisconsin next month (yes. More on that later...) means I'm sort of kind of losing my goddamn mind. Solution? Draw something pretty. Not really a solution but it does help. I drew a pretty ninja bird for my art therapy. Yelling at Joe for being an uncooperative asshole is somehow not stressful. And I discovered why I have such a bitch of a time drawing him. He is the LEAST consistently drawn of all 5 ninja birds in that damn animation. The animators couldn't agree on how long his hair should be, what style it should be, not to mention what color, how angled his eyes should be, how wide his jaw should be, the list goes on...That boy is a mess. So fine. This is what he looks like now. Because I said so. #drawing #draweveryday #pencilsketch #characterdrawing #anime #oldschoolanime #gatchaman #scienceninjateam #battleoftheplanets #joethecondor #gforce #arttherapy #artistsoninstagram #artistsonpatreon #samantha_johnson_art #illustratorsoninstagram
