2011 - the year in sketches

Well here we are at the end of the year. It's been quite a ride. I've done a sketch every day, which have ranged from atrocious to pretty good.

The full year's sketches - even the bad ones - are posted on deviantArt in my Daily Sketches gallery.

And for those of you who really want to check out my personal hall of shame, there's the Blooper Reel gallery. Because I'm secure enough to laugh at my own mistakes.

Here are my favourites by month, and a little bit about why I like them.

January
Immortus - I llike how the hands turned out.

February
Static - Dwayne McDuffie tribute sketch

March 
Dr. Seuss - World Literacy Day sketch

April
Sarah Jane Smith - Elisabeth Sladen tribute sketch


May
Daredevil - I just like the energy of it 

June
Concrete - Liked the mood of it. I was also satisfied with the texture.

July 
Man-Thing - This one's all about the textures.

August
Nightwing - I like the energy, and had enough fun with it to come back later and drop in a bit of colour.

September
Black Panther - I picked a really hard pose, and like the way it turned out.

October
Giant Monster - another one that is all about the textures

November
Black Cat - Swishy hair and relatively correct proportions

December
Samwise Gamgee
This is not only my favourite from December, but also my favourite for the whole year. Everything just clicked for me that day.

That's it for 2011. Happy New Year, everyone, and hope 2012 treats you well.
