A lot of the life drawings seem wildly out of proportion. A body should be approximately 7 heads high.

Kalkal - Thanks, man. I haven't taken any formal classes on life drawing. Which ones are you speaking about in particular? I'll try to remember that when I do more life-like drawings in the future.
OSFA - Dunno. I'm not subscribed to HOW. Any chance you can provide me with a scan? Is it "Brooklyn Wine Co Feliz Red/Feliz White"?
FlyingNowhere - Lol. Great reference. AND I love your style summary. I've always loved Ralph Steadman. His cover for "Withnail and I" is brilliant. Do you sketch?

You may be good at making caricatures.

thanks, guys. i'm glad you like them. a while ago, i tried to organize a Friday "sketch night" for all NYCers to sit and sketch together in a café. Anyone interested in trying this again?

Really nice sketches, how marketable is this particular style of illustration? I hope that you take your sketches to the next level with some extraordinary style and uniqueness to help seperate you from the countless other illustrators out there!

i doubt it's really that marketable, and I'd never want to illustrate for a living. Just a hobby of mine. Although, I have had a number of sketches commissioned for different projects. If you're interested:

I think you should practice drawing from life alot more. And try to diversify your linework.
