Here's a look at one of the character doodle sheets.
These are possible supporting cast members.

Do as good as the comic stuff of others, but I'm still practicing.

 

Cool stuff!

I like the little robot dude in the upper right hand corner.

 

I was thinking the same thing love that bot!
Great work chuck!

 

Okay, I've have to doodle some more with my little metal friend.

 

Very Cool Sir you are talented !

 

Very cool Chuck. You seem to do lots of character studies! I really need to practice drawing more.. i am still on the same sketchbook i've had for about 2 1/2 years.

 

nice characters chuck. i like where these are going

 

Chris,
I'm usually working in at least 3 sketchbooks.
One large for auto art, another for other art, and then a small
one to carry around when I'm someplace where I
don't have the room for a large pad.
(It has all kinds of art in it.)

I probably replace one of them every 2-3 months.
When I watch TV in the evening, I am also usually sketching some
too.
It's just become a habit to doodle a couple of pages a day.
(Most of which I would never post anywhere, but I need the practice.)

Thanks for the support Arin.
Someday I'll have to turn this into finished artwork.

 

Hey Chuck I just have to give a big Thank-You as my 10 yr old Nathan is soo inspired by your sketching that its now become his preoccupation before he gos to sleep and when he first wakes , he even tried to pass up on Breaky ,but I had to draw a line. You have Sir left an everlasting impression THANK-YOU !

 

and thats why you are an artist and i'm just a guy who draws once in a while. I really wish i had teh disipline to draw just to practice... I really only draw when there is somthing i want to make.

 

Ed--thanks, wow, that's such a great compliment.
I'm glad to help ignite the art spark in others.
Big Daddy Roth, Ed Newton, George Trosley and Charles Schultz did it
for me. Now I get to pass it on to somebody else.

Chris, thank you.
And if you can call me an artist, than I surely will also call you an artist too.
Art practice to me is just like in any sport.
I'm building "muscle memory" in my arm to make certain shapes.
The more I practice, the easier it gets the next time.

 

Chuck those are great.. something about that monkey on the middle right though, seems like I can relate to that guy

 

Made a couple of attempts at creating the bot character.
Not really happy with any of them.....

 

Monkey....hummmm..... that could lead somewhere....

 

I'm diggin' the little bot guy. Nice sketches. He reminds me of a bulldog . . . I think that's why I like him so much.

 

Now that you mention that, there does look to be some bulldog in the design.
Time to rethink his look.

Also working on a beaver, they hop rides on the flying whales.
Think surfer dudes with buck teeth...

 

Very Cool! I don't remember what the Whales Above is. Was this a comic strip you were making?

 

Chuck- Great looking sketches!
I wish I had your discipline to practice and practice...
I havent even filled out one notebook yet

 

Yeap, it is a long in the works, sequential style comic story idea
about a world where whales can fly.

Just think of the problems a grazing "pod" of flying whales can cause.
The story line centers around the trials of a crew which cleans up
after the whales.

Lalo--thanks, it can be a challenge, but I just try
to find the "extra" time to practice each day.

 

very cool i do remember now...i remember the guys you drew a while back cleaning up after them.
