Lizard- Final and a holiday resolution

Decided to call it quits on the lizard study.  

I have a little bit of time off from work for the holidays so I'm using it to focus more on my artwork.  By the second my goal is to have completed 20 more pages in my sketchbook and colored 10 different pictures.  For the colored pieces, they don't have to be finished illustrations (although I do want to have 1 or 2 finished); they can be quick paints in Photoshop or with traditional media. 

This may be a tall order for me but if it gets me working, hey, I'll take it.

I'm going to count this lizard as my first colored piece.  I also drew 2 pages.  It's a start!

Sketch Page 693

A re-draw of an old art piece from last year.  I used this sketch to vent frustrations and disappointments.  Very therapeutic!  Seems like Offering is always my subject for getting rid of "mental poisons".  

I guess in a way it makes sense, considering he is the embodiment of psychological and physical decay.
 
Bonus Infected Mushroom lyrics :P

Here is the old piece from May 2011

Sketch Pages 690-692

 Some pony sketches.  Okay, maybe it's just me but I noticed after I drew the old pony on the bottom left- well, it looks like he has lil penis legs. 

moving on.
 Thinking about coloring this one, despite horrible anatomy.
And yay!  I did a page with two characters interacting!  Granted they're only sizing each other up.

Further progress on the lizard study.  




The last image is based on the pixelovely sketch above.  A musculature/ shadow study.

Sketch Pages 679-684 and Sketchbook Cover







I wasn't sure if I would include my latest sketchbook cover.  I've been rather down about my art lately and this cover is personal.  Ah well.  Front and Back.
