Crappy Toy & The Tome
I needed a reference for a crappy toy,
so I made this.
I needed a toy that looked like all
those crappy toys from the 80's and 90's that all had the same body
but just had a different paint job (Anybody remember those? They barely moved. Sometimes the legs, torso and head were all one solid piece.) I needed it because whenever I tried to draw an action figure,
it kept coming out more like a small person than a malformed,
disproportioned, stiff action figure. I tried to find one I already had, but apparently action figure technology has come along way since then, and I couldn't find one that was all one piece and they all had joints and moved and so forth-- they didn't look anything like what I needed.
I got it in a two-pack for a dollar. I
was hoping for a wrestler, but they only had ninjas.
Also, I just finished thumbnailing
a chapter and almost finished off the sketchbook.
The front page is blank because it's a
title page that I haven't drawn yet.
There are only 3 blank pages left, but
I'm not sure if I'm going to start the next chapter on those, or, a
new sketchbook. Thinking about it though, I'll probably start a new
one in case I decide to redraw any more of the pages.
This is the last page in it. It's a
redrawn page from the beginning that I thought I could do better. (I did.)
