Sketches for Twits 03

This is for @shuttler who is the source of my miniature wargaming/collecting envy, beyond that podcasting, gaming and geekery abounds!

This was the 140 character (or less) sketch pitch: 15 ft amazon women defends the city of London from alien jellyfish falling from the sky.

I should also add that I had loads of fun with this one, best pitch so far… I don’t normally draw Jellyfish, Big Ben or Amazons. I’m probably going to go over in copic pens and erase what doesn’t make that and give it a touch of copic/prismacolour. Easily more that could be done to take it beyond the sketch stage. I couldn’t resist adding in that text before I uploaded.

(I probably messed up on the 15ft part, I had intended to use the vague height of Big Ben as a marker but “OMG, Jellyfish in the sky while London burns!”)

I’d also like to apologise to the city of London for the sloppiest rendition of Big Ben ever to grace the internet. I really did want to spend hours crafting each beautiful part, I really did!
