Description Someone needs to break my thumbs before this happens again. No, seriously. The tiniest vigilante has taken over my sketchbook.

This is just pure, vicarious smut. He probably just sleeps in his little pinstriped outfit. If he even sleeps. Heh.

Sandeh, I hope you don't mind me torturing your pencils like this. D8

Sleepy Walter never fails to make me squee. It must be the thought of cuddling with him....I mean what?

Hahaha. Thanks. He probably wouldn't appreciate the cuddling, though. He doesn't really seem like the spooning/sunggly type. Such a pity.

And he might be a bit smelly in such close quarters

This is awesome, but I think he sleeps in that outfit he wears when he's not in costume. Also, I'm pretty certain he hides all of his Rorschach a-tire before going home.
I really like the colors in this pic more than anything else, though the line work deserves it's own props. Kudos to you.

Hahaha. I was kind of kidding about that. I was mostly thinking about how he seems so private and a bit prudish (?) that he probably wouldn't want to sleep in pyjamas like everyone else.

And thank you so much <3 I loved doing the linework for this one but I was a bit anxious about colouring it in. So I'm glad you think it turned out well.

You're welcome for the fave, and yes, the color job turned out very well, but now I'm curious. Do you have b&w line work version posted? If you do, I'd really like to see it. ^_^

ThisViciousCircle In reply to QuietWatcher [2009-05-18 00:04:29 +0000 UTC]

Unfortunately, I don't have the lineart version at all because I did the colour-up directly on the sketch with coloured pencils. I didn't do any WIP scans this time - which was silly of me, really.

Your style of drawing is so edgy and harsh! Like, not in a bad way either. I mean, I really get the feeling of a dingy room and..for some reason coldness...The details on the arms and legs just give it that sort of skeletal look <3 It's so awesome!
I love the bed sheets too, nice work on the lines there

Wow, this comment totally made my day! :'D

Thank you heaps and buckets!

My drawing style has gone through a lot of revamps, but I think I'm getting closer to what I like creating most and what feels the most natural for me - so it means the world to have someone compliment it <3

Also, very cool that you mentioned the cold and the dingy-ness because that was totally the feel I was going for. I'm feeling pretty "Mission accomplished" right now. Hahahaha.

CreamyBanana In reply to ThisViciousCircle [2009-04-24 03:06:05 +0000 UTC]

xD! I'm so glad I got it right! I mean, I totally thought it was cold and dingy, but I read some of the before comments and they were like 'it's so cute!' so I was like uh oh...xD;
But yeah, you really hit the target so...hurrah!

And no, you really deserve the compliment It really is a really well done piece. How long have you been drawing out of curiosity?

I've been drawing for about four years, but I've only been serious about it for the past year and a half. Before that I never really practiced and drew mostly eyes/faces/super-deformed chibis. Hahaha.

CreamyBanana In reply to ThisViciousCircle [2009-04-30 06:49:07 +0000 UTC]

Dudeee I did that too! I was so obsessed with eyes for a wile. I had this like..conception that if my eyes looked good it didn't matter if the rest of it looked like crap ;; ; Oh how wrong I was...
Well, you've obviously improved from deformed chibis. Although, those are quite cute~

And thanks <3

UNF! Haley is sexy in such an off-handed, kind of sweet way. I love that man.

I'm totally going to have to check out your gallery now, you know. Seeing as it's bound to be filled with two of my favourite things.

Thank you!

I sent one out last night, but they're probably just busy with all of the tonnes of other awesome submissions they've been getting recently. It's so cool to be in such an active club! <3
