As an incentive for myself to practice drawing more frequently. I am starting a sketch a day on my Deviant art. going to try to submit at least 1 sketch per day.

these may be forum personalities, My Oc's, comic book characters, random characters, cartoon characters. anything.

I don't want anyone to think this is a post a link to your character and you'll get an awesome picture back thread. what you get back will be raw ill be spending between 10 to 20 minutes on them, depending on the day it may border upon g0dawful, until I improve my consistency.

also. not everyone who post's a character here is gonna get a pic back. some toons may be more complicated then i wish to go into, or perhaps i just don't find them appealing. but for what ever reason don't get your hopes up.

Ive submitted 3 to get the ball rolling. all of which are forum personalities or one of their toons. (1 is me )

Check it out

Feel free to post suggestions here. I'd love to hear suggestions from other artist's as well as to what characters they have enjoyed drawing in the past. suggest anything

Besides characters you could also do quick sketches of equipment and costume pieces.

Nemesis staff is the most iconic, but you could also try some of the custom weapon selections, blackstaff, pets/minions, Crey pistol, jet packs. Good practice for the more high-tech heroes

My references ae in my sig if you're interested.

Otherwise, would be interesting to see Marvin the Martian though. My grandpa could draw him and other toons so well, and now that he's gone, I miss those sketches.

This is a cool idea.

One day I'm going to have to actually have a signature character...

Sounds like you are going to have fun with this! Enjoy! I look forward to seeing the results of your speed draw.

I have to say, sketches of in-game stuff do sound cool. I think NPCs would fit in there nicely too, especially the more iconic ones: a Malta Gunslinger, a Rikti, and definitely a Freakshow Tank. Heck, maybe even merge the latter two into t3h R1k70-Fr34k.

I have Burnt Matchsticks in varying degrees of complexity. Though most are fairly simple. Feel free to use one.

Oh these are always cool ideas

I always salute endeavors like this, because of how hard it is to consistently do something every day.

o7 Good luck, Electagonist! And you're off to a fine start, I'd say.

I've said it on your dA account, but wanted to say it here too...thank you so much for both sketches. Marvin is awesome, and brings back a ton of memories for me.
