A Sketch A Day - Scooter

Yeah, I got this idea the other day that I really wanted to draw my 8' tall character Miles on a scooter. I have no idea how that got into my head (I think I saw a really tall, big guy on a really small scooter while I was in town or something), but I just couldn't get it out of my head, so I finally broke down and drew it. First, I made some small ink sketches.

You can even see how tall he is compared to his 5 foot-something girlfriend there in the middle.

It turns out that I chose a really bad paper, because once I had sketched it out, it wouldn't let me erase the pencil without smudging, so I just inked on top of it, hoping to be able to fade out the grey in scanning. It sort of worked.



And that's how it turned out. I'm not too happy with the perspective in some places, especially with the wheels. I had so many problems with those wheels.
I think I'll transfer this to a better paper and try to color it later.
