Harry Dresden and Bob the skull from Author Jim Butcher's "The Dresden Files"

I was introduced to the series by who also suggested I do some art pertaining to it.
As it goes, I am loving the series, especially Bob! I can't wait to read more!

He has stubble...I like how this piece uses dingier colours than usual. Dresden blends in with the shadows, but the light brings out the outlines of his face

Thanks! I always imagined it to be a dingy in terms of the imagery the books created, seemed like he constantly worked in a grimy atmosphere. But when you go around skulking about in the night researching the magical and paranormal, I suppose it will happen!

Thanks I have only read the first book and a couple of short stories so far, really enjoyed them though and I have the second book sitting on my desk at home. I wish I just had more time to read, i'm sure i'd chew through these in no time, very fun!

*is driven into the earth by the impact of the hug*
yes, it has been awhile.
I am doing well. my job is paying well and I my car has not broke down or anything serious yet
I am a little worried right now because my fiancee Kyle might not be here for Halloween, or our one year anniversary on November 1st. but he's not sure, it might change to where he can go next wednesday instead, but he doesn't want to get his hopes up.
anyways, I'm just really worried about it, but trying not to be. I mean, I know I have him for so many anniversaries to come, but still it matters.
but other than that, I'm well.

aww sorry to hear about Kyle not being there for your anniversary...though that said, you can always make like the Queen and have an 'official' anniversary at a later date?

that's very true! and at this point, he's been told they might make it back in time for both Halloween AND our anniversary. so hopefully, things will work out for the best.

Bob is great, and his style is entertaining, but watch out! The series advocates Abstinence, a very unhealthy practice indeed.

Thanks, and lol, yes Bob is highly entertaining, I haven't gotten very far into the series yet, just started book two, but I am enjoying it so far. As for the latter matter (rhyme not intentional) I think I can make it through without being 'influenced' VERY unhealthy!

Thanks, coincidentally, they spell out my friend's ID, since it was his suggestion to try sketching these two

Thanks, I am so glad you like it! I tested out a few new techniques on this one, atmospheric lighting and blended backgrounds, was a real fun challenge Who knows, mebbe as I get through the series I may draw some more DF art
