I only drew one tiny thing on Wednesday. I had an idea to draw a really laid back guy in flip-flops and an open tee. I just doodled his legs and went back to playing Riven.

Thursday I’d left for work when I realized I hadn’t brought my pad or pens/pencils for the Drawing Club.

The model was great! Very evocative of the One Million B.C. theme.
