Forgot I had drawn this variant for my arcadestick. It's unfinished and I was supposed to finish Anton as seen in the sketch. Maybe one day...

Went to a drink and draw meeting yesterday and drew fellow artists at the tables. So hard to draw people moving a lot!

Randomly went to a gesture live drawing session yesterday. All poses done in 5 to 10min. It's been years since I last attended one, so it was fun

Watched an excellent review of a semi-obscure PS2 game that I like a lot, #kuon , and did a quick sketch of Utsuki. It's an old From Software horror game, but I highly recommend it. And here's the review in question in case you're curious: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9l0...
