Yay!  A return to train drawings!

Ok, been a good long time since my last post, but due to living situation changes I'm gonna be riding the red line a lot again, so that bodes well for my train sketchbook. Anyway, words later, for now here's a new train sketch

Interesting factoid, the black lady on the right started out as an old white guy.

The Best One Yet/I Hate Saying That

Yeah, this is a good one though. I've gotta figure out a way to spend more time on buses and trains, which is a fucking sad thing to say. Anyway, this girl was beautiful, but I may have beautied her up a bit as well..

An End Of The Month Drawing As The Month Draws To An End..

Alright, a few thoughts on the state of contemporary train doodleadge and possible ramifications of the move to the big city--pertaining to sketching. Mostly this: I am now not on the train for 45 insufferable minutes at a time. The trip from Evanston to downtown can be nice, especially on an express, and it's great for people watching, but it's just too much, and I would not have it back for anything. Still, even if it does take a longer time, I have gotten some transit people down, as evidenced by this one, which I actually like.



She noticed me drawing this, by the way. It was weird.

Two Good Transit Doodles In A Row, Excellent

Not much to say here... This was a pretty straight shot too, like one or two train/bus rides and finished (I think).

This Is A Good One

Yep, nothing much to say about it, fended off crazy dude "You draw that man? You a drawer?" attack while doing it...

Today's Effort Is Meh, But There's A Good One In There..

The one on the top right I like, nothing more to say. Didn't do the whole thing in one shot, it should be mentioned...

Guy really did look a lot like Buster though.

Computer Arrives! Moving To City Begins! The Renaissance Continues!

As I type this on my new awesome keyboard, attached to my new awesome laptop, I can't help but wonder what wonders the world has in store for all of us, and how life is like a shifting gossamer curtain, alternatively revealing and hiding its magic from us! Oh, that our impish joy at this spritely game should continue!

Jesus, I can't believe a piece of hardware has had such a pronounced dandifying effect on me, what the hell is wrong with me? As always, sketches follow.


Disregard the fatalistic pomposity of above, I want to skip through a field of wild poppies!

Been A While

New sketchbook (now with actual paper designed for doing art on!), new laptop coming my way (more on that later), moving into the big city, things are looking good. Sketches follow.

Another Month, Another Brief Productivity Bubble

Alright, a new month, another birthday under my belt, money paid to student loans, etc. In honor of new beginnings I'll be doing the same thing as always, as below. I just recently picked up some Faber-Castell brush markers and a micron specifically for train drawing, so give me a while to get used to that.

Few days old, still good though.

It's St. Pat!

Huh, usually avoid drawing women on the train, because of the awkwardness of the whole 'staring intently' problem, but all ladies today.

Today's entry in train doodledge.

Mocking Funday

Well, an exciting weekend. Drinks were had. Then more drinks were had. Drawings were drunkenly half-finished. Things were not posted till Monday. Etcetera.



And here's one of many pages of drunken bar slatterns. These are all pretty gross.

And here's today's transit doodle.

Huh, bad week for sketching on trains I guess...

....And another. Wow, I really need to get some actual stuff up here. Some writing at the very least. But oh well..

More train drawings. Less finished, but quantitatively more, so...
