My friend Mindi asked if I ever drew pugs. I realized no, I had never drawn a pug. So I started drawing some. Here is my first pug sketch. Pretty standard. Kind of boring. But drawing things more representationally at first helps me figure out what is defining about it. If that makes any sense.

“I need to Breadwiggify this”, I thought to myself in quotation marks. So  I drew this one.

That looked better, but I wanted to push it further, so I tried making the legs just sort of hang off the frong of him. I also gave him burger bun lips.

I need to loosen up, I thought without quotation marks. So I tried drawing him quicker, looser, more slobbery.

That led to this drawing, where he’s getting nice and lumpy/foldy. Kind of like poorly mashed potatoes in your laundry.

And here’s the final drawing I did. I think he’s cute in a weird puggy kind of way.

I’m trying to decide if I want to make this little guy in 3D. Any encouragement to do so? Or should I just leave him in his expressive, but flat existence?

Make sure to click the image for a zoom, looks better that way. I’m hoping to color this soon. Maybe turn it into a t-shirt or something.

Drew this today for no reason really. I might even do a full color version sometime soon, we’ll see.

Okay, I admit it, I don’t really know what this is, but I’m hoping you can tell me. In any event, I like it and want to draw more.

Haven’t posted in quite a bit, been swamped getting Peltie inked and colored and putting together a comic or two to bring to the Sandiego Comic Con. I’m finally done though, whew!  So, to celebrate, here’s a bunch of elephant sketches.
