New Cartoon Series: "Doodle" style

So I am trying a new style of cartooning...a more "loose" look..something i've been wanting to do for awhile...

i don't wanna concentrate too much on subject matter but rather on the style, the techniques i use to make the actual cartoon...commence the "doodle" style blogs! i'll try to update this as much as i can, these "doodle" style tons will be used as a study for my understanding of this new experimental style i'm trying out...

i don't wanna put myself in a corner by saying this but everyday (or almost everyday) i will try to make a new toon...these toons will consist mainly of observation and self-portraits of things i did or thought about during the day...

no pencil will be used and, as you can see in these first two i'm putting up, medium will consist of a fine point ink pen, and then digital work (i might use markers at other times) for coloring...this will help to make the lines more "spontaneous".

with that said, here's my first one:

Photobucket

i like this one so much i think i just might incorporate it into my logowork as well as any marketing i do for myself on flyers and such...

this first one actually was the 4th trial, ha....it took some thinking on my part to get the look i wanted...hopefully it doesn't take as long on the others!

anywho, lemme know what you think, thanks!
