That ones cool too! My husband really likes robots. He has a few wind up ones decorating his office and bathroom. About the gouache vs. watercolor you commented on in my blog. It actually is all watercolor. I never thought of trying goauche for large dark areas....it might work better than the watercolor. I always have problems with the watercolor being too mottled when I use it in dark areas. (Like the Ambler Theater post) Thanks for the tip! I will have to try it out!
Mike, these illustrations are great. I love the loose drawing style. Ink drawing keeps an artist honest, I think. Great stuff. Oh, my little boy wants me to tell you he loves it too!
As far as the honest ink, loose drawing style, I gotta admit, I'm just lazy. These scribbles are just about all I can force myself to do on a regular basis, but I'm trying to get more ambitious.
