Earlier this year I asked for a few drawing ideas to help me practice getting my drawing skills back.
was one of the few to actually respond.
He requested a drawing of his young werewolf character named Tolbain ([link]).
I love the idea of kids being...well KIDS! The innocents and freedom of not having to worry about anything other then homework. That may be because I was once one of those kids until I had to grow up (bills, politics, duties, cleanliness, etc.). I love The Jungle Book, Peter Pan, Stand By Me, & Robby type of books, movies, etc. Unless Disney is in charge of it. They always screw it up.
Anywho, It's a reason why many of my characters/drawings are of kids just being kids. And Tolbain is one such character. From what I understand, he's a cross between Mowgli, & Peter Pan with a Werewolf story thrown in for good measure.
When I finally got the chance to draw him, I had one heck of a difficult time coming up with ideas for drawing him. First I was doing a combination of him in both forms (Human and Werewolf) but nothing I did looked good at all. Hinze the need for practice I mentioned earlier.
I eventually decided to at him as if he was one of my character's (SKIN) spirit. Doing so kept Tolbain grounded in the Childhood innocents he already has. The next struggle was also a biggie. Posing Him!
Tolbain lives in the wold (Mowgli style) and has no need for clothing. But I didn't want to just throw in a leaf between his legs. That's extremely tacky and gives it a form of censorship. Thus giving it the illusion of child porn. WHICH IT'S NOT!!
So what I did was imagine myself as him in a tree trying to find a place to sit. So ended up with the above. To counter the leaf issue I positioned his knees in front and kept his bottom out of a resting place to give him a sense of movement. The flying squirrel was a last minute addition.
Is it Tolbain's future lunch? :evil: lol
I finished this a while ago but then my scanner wouldn't work. DOH! I FINALLY got it to work long enough for a scan of this.
Feel free to ink and color this if you wish.Lots of the tree is missing, but feel free to finish it up.
