I have a <A HREF="http://www.alibris.com/booksearch?author=Jack+Hamm&title=Cartooning+the+head+and+figure" REL="nofollow">book</A> to recommend to you for drawing/cartooning. It's "Cartooning The Head & Figure" by Jack Hamm. I got a used copy of it at alibris.com. It's an excellent resource. It has pages devoted to eyes, noses, hair, etc. Jack Hamm was a cartoonist back in the 1960's and 70's.RyanLoghryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447161032665457097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3016342403721034895.post-88607363433825753632008-05-01T20:58:00.000-04:002008-05-01T20:58:00.000-04:00Holy cow, I can't keep up, you are kicking butt ov...Holy cow, I can't keep up, you are kicking butt over here. These sketches (and all in your previous posts) are lookin' good. <BR/><BR/>I found it amazing when I started my sketch a day sitch. It seemed like I was improving amost by osmosis. I couldn't figure out what it was that was making my stuff improve. Something magical happens. I think all the things you've observed in real life and the techniques you've seen others do kind of seep in there and synthesizes and just comes spewing out if you keep the sketching nozzle open.<BR/><BR/>Umm, what the heck did I just say?

She has eyes like the middle guy but she doesn't look sad or droopy. So what you say about that kind of eyes, I think really depends on small variation of angles in the lines on the eyes and also if you add other features on the face of course. I like the eyes of feed me guy too. <BR/><BR/>This experimentation is great Tom! keep it up :o)Alicia Padrónhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310467713291422507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3016342403721034895.post-49858018532136007982008-05-01T15:34:00.000-04:002008-05-01T15:34:00.000-04:00Hi Tom...these are fun illustrations....I love eac...Hi Tom...these are fun illustrations....I love each character and the flowing wind blown hair on that girl...and the feed me bib...to cute<BR/><BR/>Faces are so much fun...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09700214027813205802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3016342403721034895.post-22503967714601050982008-05-01T14:36:00.000-04:002008-05-01T14:36:00.000-04:00Hey Tom, I see lots of improvement from Day 1....l...Hey Tom, I see lots of improvement from Day 1....looking good!
