Wow...just when I thought I had seen it all in my commutes.....Saw this interesting human being get into the bus the other day. He totally had the adolf haircut going on, a super shiny shirt (which I wish I could've done a better job reproducing...sigh....), tight , dark brown leather pants and last but not least, a shiny letter G for a beltbuckle. I don't know where he was headed or what he does.....anybody care to hazard a guess???
He was standing in front of me the entire time which means I couldn't just take the sketchbook out and start drawing. I just kept stealing glances and tried to memorize his looks (trying my hardest not to laugh, of course) and then did a sketch as soon as I got the chance. Then I got home and inked the ruff sketch and colored it with watercolors. Enjoy!

Hey Chris~
Nice sketches man! Really good stuff. I know I've seen you around PDI, but i don't remember if we ever met formally...
How long have you been there?
Anyway, cool stuff. Keep on keepin on! I'll see ya around!
Beautiful ink & watercolor piece, Chris! I really like the way some of the (well designed) linework fades under a heavier stroke of color, great effect.
As far as your "character" is concerned, at first I thought the obvious name would be George. But I think he's a Geoff, and he wears the buckle so he can point to it whem people mis-spell his name or he's introduced to someone.
Great post. Fun stuff!
Hey, I really love these commute sketches. You get so much feeling and character in there! Thanks for looking at my sketches too :-)...say hi to Tim H. if you see him up there at Dreamworks :-)

Sales assistant at Gucci? Only high fashion could make you look that ridiculous! Great sketch!
I really like this style of imagery. Great stuff!
Impressive as usual.
Maybe he grabbed the wrong letter or just can't spell his name.
I like the way he leans. It's just the right angle.
