This year I joined a digital animation class. One of the basics for the class was that everday, for about ten minutes at the beginning of class, we would have guided sketch time, so as not to stray too far from animation's roots. I'd never been much for drawing, or at least not since preschool (when I was SURE I was gonna grow up to make comic books), so this sparked an interest in me for doodling. In this thread I'm just gonna post some doodles and sketches, most made for fun, some made for school-work.
My original character, The Masked Eraser. These were for sketch time guidelines asking for original character emotions. One of my earliest sketches of the character.

In complete contrast, one of my most recent doodles of him. The scenery and story have nothing to do with my character, but were sparked as a spin-off to a VERY rough sketch I made on the white board in my english class when the teacher was out of the room, where my OC was shaking his fist, and it was captioned saying "The Masked Eraser DISAPPROVES!". Made just for fun.

One of my many "it got away from me" style drawings where I make a simple scene with the sole intent of adding to it until it spirals out of control.

Another of the same style of drawing. This one is titled "Arcade War III" as it was the third set of these doodles depicting warfare between old video game characters. I've done one every year for the past four years, but I lost the others.

A sketch of some Tool album artwork I did on my math homework.

A scene from a dream. The black character (to remain nameless) is a person who acted as my DG throughout the dream. The other was a random person I remember flying through the air on a bike. The guy at the bottom that is holding on to the edge of the chess board was part of the second species prominent in the dream. I would have drawn him in a better pose but I could not remember exactly what the rest of the body looked like. A group of more of the second species are flying in on the hover-pod in the background.

A doodle I made of the Nameless DG sailing the ocean with a crew of Water Worms (the short black things with square heads topped with dorsal fins) and accompanied by a Sea Dog (sitting on the front of the ship). This scene was totally fabricated and never happened in the dream.
