My freshman year of college was one of the first times I actually kept a sketchbook and drew in it regularly-- since then I've fallen into the habit, although I don't do color stuff like this in them as often as I should since I've fallen into the mesmerizing lure of digital coloring.
In a rare display of coolness, part of the drawing syllabus required us to keep a sketchbook and do 100 sketches throughout the semester. A lot of people complained but I was hella pumped.
I still love what I was able to do with the color here, even though I screwed up the perspective worse than I was even aware was possible for a small-scale drawing.
What the hell is up with that plate?!
