From the Sketch book

Here are 2 I am pretty happy with. Have been tryin real hard to get better at doing a variety of character designs. By no means am I a good char designer, but I often fall into the habit of drawing the same types of characters, and more often then not they all look like me somehow.

So I am pushing myself to get away from that, and maybe one day I'll attempt to tackle females, cause I am awful at drawing them too. But for now this will do.

BTW, I have no clue what they are looking at or why...well the second one is a little easier to come up with something but the first one...no clue. Sorry.

Hey Dan-

I understand your pain. I, too, often resort to the same character types with the same features. I also struggle drawing the lady types. Keep at it and research designers and artists you like, and even try to dissect their style. A little bit of emulation helps your own stuff grow. Keep posting sketches like this, the baseball kid is awesome. I could see a finished piece with a huge, round shadow shrouding him. That's no baseball you're trying to catch!
