Family Feud



This one was another request, this time to illustrate a scene from Buster's story Family Feud. I hope you like it, mysterious request-maker!

Football Stud



This one was a request from a viewer that I actually quite eager to fulfil as it's based on this story - "Crushing the Football Stud" by Buster. It's actually one of my all time favourite stories from him. There's alot in the story to like - the description of the protagonist James is great but I think the most amazing thing is how the story makes a theme of what James' balls represent. They're almost characters in their own right and part of their importance is in how James was planning on using them and what it means when he can't...




 

Artist's notes:

I'm quite happy with how this one turned out in that I'm trying to push myself more with shading and making the composition more dynamic. I mean yeah, I still have a long way to go...but I really enjoyed drawing this. I still struggle drawing faces and hair - there was added challenge in this as the author described James as being "blonde with violet eyes" which I have to say is not a combo I'm used to. The background is recycled because I still abhor drawing backgrounds...still so much to work one and improve!
