Drive Thru!

TOM- So here is a Pin Up drawing that i did over Christmas
break. I'm very unsatisfied with the way it came out. I've had this whole
' drive thru' concept in my head for a while but for some reason, i just can't get it to work. I feel like it's the composition on this one that is giving me the trouble. The placement of that drive thru sign is killing me, it's kind of just floating there. Also, i was trying to get across a Gil Elvgren kind of feel, but realized that's alot harder than i might have thought. Any help or suggestions would be great, i would like to eventually make this a more polished illustration.

Sketchbook Drawings

TOM- So I decided to post some sketchbook drawings
for my first post. Normally my sketchbooks are a very personal
thing for me, and I don't show many people, but i'm trying to become
more open with them so I could get feedback on them and hopefully
some of the pieces can become finished illustrations or comics
later on.

I try to keep my sketchbooks as free-flowing as possible, that is
I don't really know what I'm going to draw when I open the book.
With that being said, I don't know why I tend to draw alot of open
mouths, plantlife growing out of humans, and women eating men.
I guess there is alot of material there to psychoanalyze...


But most of the time I just like drawing hot chics...
And here are some life drawings that i threw in just to make myself look
like somewhat of a serious artist....
