The post with the most...Lil' ghost


Here are some sketches done over the past few weeks.  The top is me and Sam Gorrie, a Canadian artist working in Las Vegas who came to visit last month.

Its been a little while since I've last posted so I have quite a bit to show. ENJOY






This guy had an awesome face I could have gone further.







Who the heck comes and wants to get drawn stranglin' a cat? 

Pretty decent sketch.  Sam was watchin me do this one.  I dont think they liked it though.
He reminded me of a flying squirrel.

sweet merciful post, it was like the christmas morning that never came but then it did, and there were 3x as many presents.
okay. that rugby one where you drew her all dirty with the big butch woman trying to take her down. awesome.
hulk+football player ->that kid was pushing it, but turned out awesome.
asian surfer- love the simplicity of his torso and his weird smile.

that couple totally weren't as into their drawing as they shoulda been. that was a masterpiece, i have the image of her face done at just the black and white stage permanently etched in my mind. i think it will be one of the images i see right before I die and my life flashes before my eyes. THAT MEMORABLE.

okay. good work oakes. don't keep us waiting that long in the future k?

Man, great situaion. You guys must get asked to do A LOT of bodies over there, or maybe those are just the majority of the pictures being shared on the blogs. Funny stuff!! I got ask though, I've noticed you're not slammin people like you used to, what gives?

Brian Oakes said...

Sean, wow are these sketches that tame?! well as an answer to that I must say that I feel more responsibilty in customer satisfaction, being the supervisor of such a large park. So perhaps I'm focusing on a good solid park sketch about 75% of the time, and beastin people the other 25. Where in the past it more like 50/50. I've always been into a realy good likeness no matter how exaggerated it is. I also know when to pick my battles.

Also, yes we do alot of bodies

Sean (53AN) Gardner said...

This is very true indeed, I mean no insult. I just have noticed a shift in the levels of exaggeration in the last few months. still love the work though. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in Raleigh.

Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://viagra.wilantion.ru]Viagra 100mg pills[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
