Skeletons make terrible baby sitters. I mean, they try to be cute,
but then wind up ripping the baby's face off, when they only intended to
rip off the nose.
This was another white ink on black paper drawing, using a thresholded
(i.e., turned into black and white) version of the
Home Defense
Skeletor picture. Obviously some things worked better than others.
The skeleton looks generally OK-ish, but the head should be looking to the
left side of the picture instead of straight ahead. My face is kind of
a mess, facing a few different directions. My ear actually looks
surprisingly good. And my head doesn't really look properly attatched to
my body. AND the fingers are supposed to be touching my forehead
and not poking me in the eyes! So it needs some work, but I figured it's
still a start and if I threw in a few goofy speech balloons, it'd be good
enough as a quick sketch.
Obviously I drew this mostly with a white ink pen, but I did some clean-up
work using my black ink gel pen. I drew my speech balloon in white and
then added my words with the black in pen on top of that. I adjusted the
brightness in Photoshop so the lines on the paper disappear, as they're
distracting. I didn't crop out the spiral rings on the notebook.
I didn't want to take the time to draw a detailed background like was in
the original picture. Here's the full sized version
of the picture.
