The 21th and 22th (of 106) sketch cards done for the Mars Attacks Invasion trading card series by Topps.
With a large stack of cards to do in a short period of time I repeated a motif I’ve used before: repeating, yet tweaking an image (only once) and playing with grey tones.
Mars Attacks cards first appeared in 1962, conceived and produced by Len Brown, Woody Gelman, Wally Wood, Bob Powell and Norman Saunders.

The 18th of 20 sketch cards done (the first one worked on, hence the intense smudging) for the Night of the Living Dead trading card series by Unstoppable Cards.
The card stock was…difficult to work with, so a slightly different look here…also, usually I post cards in the order I draw them, but I’ll deviate from that and place them in the film’s sequence just for kicks

A bit of a story behind this series. Half way through the project the B7 people decided they wanted firmer control on the card set (in preparation for their relaunch of B7, presumably) and then rejected all but a few artists.
So while not pack-inserted my cards are being used as “incentives” and/or “redemptions”.

This sketch was done at the Kamiano art group/kunst atelier - Kammerstraat 51, Antwerpen. I like glasses of water - they are always new. Even a movement of the head can give a new set of reflections and refractions
These were a little tricky, as the size is even smaller than the traditional sketch card (then the company mounts them on the metal plates)…

This card was done with my four-colour BiC biro, and is a rough copy of a diagram in a book I was reading. The book was registered with bookcrossing and is now in the wild.
I have been trying a bit of cross -hatching on mr nokkon wood, which is new for me.

Another sketchcard from August Macke is a thumbnail of his painting, done while in Tunis, of the town St Germain near Tunis. Macke went on a painting trip to Tunis with his painter friends, Klee and Moiller, and brought back some lovely works.
All being well, I go "walkies" next Saturday, 1st March for a while - I don't know for how long yet. I hope to not fall too far behind with photos and comments.
