aliens

"A happy little planet but these aliens have landed and seem to be taking people away." A watercolored fountain pen drawing in my Moleskine sketchbook.

I drew these guys with a Pilot Custom 823 FA and Platinum Carbon Black ink. The FA nib has a good drawing width on watercolor paper - one of my favorites. It's a soft nib but I don't use the line variation, just some nice shock absorption with each downstroke. The Carbon Black ink is out-of-this-world good, though being pigmented I fear keeping it in too many pens.

I see you~ Time-lapse, https://www.instagram.com/p/CCc4tKbnc4w/ Black Eyed Children are fascinating but I hope I never meet one :,) They're thought to be aliens disguised as human kids. Their eyes have no white in them, only black. Similar to vampires, they need permission to come into your home. There's no color I hate working with but it's very difficult for me stick to a limited palette. Working with markers was very much out of my comfort zone! I hope to work with them more.

Alien Imprinted Humanless World

I don't always draw skulls and beer, sometimes I draw aliens too!

4x5 littles on wood with acrylic and ink.

(Gel Fineliner on A5 Paper) It has to be the reason why we can't all speak French. Either that or they're completely useless at their jobs.;P

This was fun, wild,and crazy to draw.

On their worlds... We are the aliens.

My son gave me a sketch challenge - Scooby Doo. So, I decided to add Kirk, Spock, Arex and some tribbles from Star Trek: The Animated Series.

Ive been gifting my friends for their birthdays Alien illustrations. The aliens represent them in a parallel reality

I had to re-upload her the last one was so UN-proportional I couldn't stand it. But I know I need to work on hands and fingers. It's an alien that lives in a doll like body. It can manipulate the doll, moving fingers, arms and eyes. So nothing like cutting open your doll just to find an alien creature living inside. No, my aliens will not have any gender. Why don't we reproduce like worms, get split into two.

I forgot that this prompt was for last week, but I figured I'd upload this anyway. It's definitely a simple drawing; I think it turned out pretty okay. I rarely use markers and I don't usually draw mythical creatures/aliens, so this was pretty interesting to do.

"It meant something good when it was over. I need my space." ~ A blackout poem from a recycled page of Dealing with Blue, a YA love story with small town fun.

…and into December!

Aliens seeking company and respite...

Master of All

(Gel Fineliner on A5 Paper) It's difficult to see what any intelligent alien would ever see in us.

Just some doodling

I have a good bit more to do with this but I thought I’d post the progress so far. First time using real software besides stuff like paint. Sketched out the bones of it in pen and scanned to myself.

I want to believe. Watercolors in my sketchbook.

(black biro on a 75mm x 125mm post-it note) That never-ending search for life on other planets.

One can only dream.

Pink aliens in lieu of pink elephants here.

It's a yin-yang kind of thing on the go here.

Cartoons old and gold just keep on inspiring me.

Fun fact: This, some 34 years ago, nearly became the title of Pixar’s first short “The Adventures Of André & Wally B.”. You learn something new every day folks...
