Smook, thanks so much my bruther! Good to hear from you!

Patrick, my buddy, Thank you!!

Ramon, Thanks so much! Hard to say how many hours I draw. I draw for a living so there's about 8 there, and at night I draw for me, which can vary from a couple of hours to 4-6 hours. I love drawing, and can never get enough!

Amelia, yes, I will be attending the WonderCon this year as an exhibitor. I'll be there with my buddies Jose Lopez and Patrick Morgan. I'm hoping to sell my sketchbooks in addition to some original artwork (I need to get crackin' on those drawings!!) I'll definitely keep an eye out for you!

St. John, Thanks so much for those kind words. I'll respond to you via email.

Mark, my bruther, how are you? Thanks so much! I miss you too. You've been posting some amazing stuff lately, but then again, you're always posting great stuff! Hope to hear from you soon!

thekcirbuk, thanks so much!!!!

John, great stuff you are a daily inspiration for me to quit making excuses and just draw.

I was wondering, if it's not giving away any 'trade' secret, or too much too ask, when you do your layout studies, I notice there is always a faint "grid' underneath. Is that done freehand, or with some sort of template? and is that basically done, for lack of a better word as a spine/line of action?

I intend to get you sketchbook shortly, and was wondering if you have ever thought of doing something similar along the lines of some 'insider' tips and tricks? As in the aforementioned grid, and other tidbits that help you draw the way you do?

Thanks, you truly are a great inspiration, and your blog is an awesome way to start my day.

Very nice. I always enjoy your use of tone and the range of value in your sketches like these. Can I ask what you're drawing with here? Looks like it might be litho crayon.

I'd also love to know what you were using for your tone work on the LotR sketches you posted last month. Thanks.

Perry Linton Joseph Osuna said...

Cool studies - any news on the sketchbooks we ordered by the way John? Did you receive the requisite dollars?
