Mid-Week Post #1

As promised, here is the first mid-week post. These are a few sketches that I've done when I had a planning period while substitute teaching. They give a brief glimpse into the more... unique side of my imagination that has been showing itself more often as time progresses.

The first is another dragon, this time more Asian-styled.

Next are a couple of vicious looking creatures drawn, unfortunately, on a yellow lined notepad.  Eh... I guess you work with what you've got.  Not really sure what to call either of them, but open to suggestions.

There you have it.  I'm sure that between sketches buried in piles of papers and new sketches that result from boredom inspired trips into my imagination, I should be able to keep up the mid-week posts.
-AH!

The Fun Begins!

Drum-roll please... Go ahead, you know you're already making the sound in your head...
Ta-da! My first pics are posted.
Most of the art I'll post will likely be pencil drawings I've done on break while substitute teaching starting with some from 4 years ago.
Here's a horse I drew in about an hour and a half. I struggled with the proportions and musculature since I was working from memory and without reference photographs, so there are some issues with overall anatomy, but in the interest of full disclosure I'll post it anyway.

Since the horse wasn't exactly perfect I decided to draw something next that allowed for a little more interpretation.  Seeing as no one to my knowledge has ever seen a dragon, I thought that might be a good candidate, so without further ado, my dragon. Suggestions on dragon names will be accepted by way of comment below.

So, there's a horse and a dragon, now logic dictates that there should be a knight to complete the ensemble. I'm sure there are plenty of plate and chain armor aficionados out there that would critique my choice of armor, but frankly I don't care. Apart from a couple more proportion issues (which I still have occasionally) I think he turned out reasonably well.

There you have it.  The first three are up, with (hopefully) many more to come. 

Afterthought: I'm planning to set up an email address before long to be used for any suggestions for future drawings. Until such time, feel free to leave any suggestions in the comment section.

-AH!
