I saw a very questionable hand in a small gallery the other day and thought "oh come on, I can do better than that!" So here are a couple of non-questionable hands! Thanks to @1kwordsartandphoto.bsky.social for the great reference! 😃

The Chest Mimic is a carnivorous shapeshifter. It sits disguised as an enticing chest, waiting for a passing adventurer to come along and try their luck... Wait, what do you mean "not that kind of chest"? Thanks to @1kwordsartandphoto.bsky.social for the inspiration and reference!

Back to Romanesque for today's architectural sketch. One thing I love about cathedrals is how the arcades open onto more arches and the views are constantly changing. This is the south transept of Lund Cathedral seen from the nave Fineliner on A4 sketchbook paper

After I did somewhat well at my freehand Romanesque arches recently, I decided to try a Gothic one at Lund Klosterkyrkan. It was not so successful 🫤

Megaloceros giganteus, drawn in the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences, Cambridge I wimped out of doing all the ribs and vertebrae 😅 But I was most interested in getting the leg bones right

The Romanesque nave of Ely Cathedral. Probably the hardest freehand perspective sketch I've done. I didn't really get the angle of the tops of the triforium arches

Some recent portrait sketches. I'm sticking to this cartoony style to try to get the overall proportions and values right and not get distracted by rendering Thanks to @1kwordsartandphoto.bsky.social @bellaciaobella.bsky.social and @helalight3.bsky.social for the lovely references!

I started this big A3 sheet earlier this year with four panels planned out. Did two a few months ago, and came back tonight to do panel three. Very out of practice and messed it up with indelible ink 🙄 Here's the unfinished work Big thanks to @bellaciaobella.bsky.social for the dreamy references!

Around the new year I said I'd do more portrait practice in 2026... And I've barely done any 😅 But here's @helalight3.bsky.social looking perhaps a little quizzical. Thanks for the great reference Hela! 😃

What am I happy with? The face. It's not a good likeness but at least the features are in the right places What could be improved? Overall shape and proportions. Shoulder sticks out too much, and the bust–waist–hip curve isn't emphasised enough Thanks @scottkersey.bsky.social for the challenge!
