Duct Tape Witchblade

My first experience with costumed figure drawing was an entertaining experience.  A woman showed up in a silky black dress and a whole heap of duct tape all over her arm.  Supposedly, she was dressed as Witchblade.

Eh, her costume wasn’t any worse than the one worn in that TV show.

Pirates!

It’s been too long since I last posted any life drawing.  These days I prefer costumed models for practice as I need to be able to draw cloth (and shoes!) with ease.

These two dressed up as pirates for some reason.

Lady Leaning In

Sometimes only a few choice lines are necessary to get across an emotion.

Better Than Naked

Sometimes drawing normal people is more engaging than drawing naked women.

Yes, really.
