Lately, I've been feeling pretty inspired, and much of that has come from seeing a lot of excellent 2d and 3d animations—and some amazing DIY craft tutorials put online by people who are tremendously creative.
Hopefully, I'll be posting some of my efforts based on ideas I got from them on down the road.
Until then, I'll share some more recent pastel pencil work from my sketchbook.

As I wrote then, I thought it was fantastic and the next time I sat down to draw, "Strato" jumped outa my cranium onto a page of my sketchbook—influenced in a large part by seeing that animation.
(Although his face reminds me a little of the old film actor James Dean)
Once I had the pencil sketch done—I whipped out the pastel pencils started in with them.
As mentioned in other posts—they're a bit hard to control and after a few layers it becomes more and more difficult to change things—but even with that concession—I was kinda happy with the final result.
I'll call this a "study" though because I might either digitally or "real-world" paint this in the future.

After scrolling through the comments, I found I wasn't the only one who noticed.
So I took a screen shot of pic and printed it out, planning to see if I could caricature her—and of course thinking that her neck would be a featured aspect. ☺
IMHO, Dion has grown weirder through the years as well—so after I had the basic caricature—I added some other elements to represent that.
Again, this one was done with those pesky pastel pencils.
