more character sketches (SGA)



A few more character sketches... Rodney, Teyla, Zelenka, Ford, Weir. Plus I did a couple more of Sheppard. Because he's pretty, I'm shallow, and he makes the most interesting faces. :)

Rodney is really darn hard to draw, in spite of his distinctive features. I wanted to do one of him in his "Yay I just figured out this bit of Ancient technology!" mode, but I just couldn't get it right (yet, hrmpf). Maybe it's because the man never shuts up and is always gesticulating, and it's tricky to capture that energy on paper. *ponders*

Anyway, next thing I'll probably try my hand at a couple of scenes. I'd like to do a comic in this fandom eventually, but I don't have anything concrete yet, only a few vague ideas. But I have pictures in my head that want out. (I missed that feeling...)

Your Sheppard really is exceptionally pretty. Just like the original. ;) *snerk*

But I think, from this set, I like Zelenka best. He's gruffy and his glasses give the face a depth... hard to describe. He looks very realistic. I am amazed that it's possible to draw realistic glasses like that in stark black and white.

Ah, with glass, the secret more or less lies in what not to draw, I think.

Heh.
