Done... and now to bed!

Combo of NPR and the Dead Kennedys saw me through the final hours.

Bring on the next deadline!

morning and another tugboat

under-drawing and color version in progress. Can't tell how close I am to finishing this one. Which is usually a good time to stop. Have to tie up the foreground and fix some wonky marks.

The question is now, will the tug make it to it's destination before this week's assignment deadline?

Another image in progress from the tugboat story. the statue of liberty waves goodbye as the tug heads down the coast. This one does a little better job in keeping looser and watercolory-ish.

some current work in progress. lots of pages due in short time, so it's been good for trying to find a faster, looser way to go. Here, it's going directly from a sketchy version to color, skipping the "tightening" phase a little--though it's still reworked from initial sketch.

here's the original sketch, tighter sketch w/tones, coloring in progress
