Description Some of these sketches are really old, and some are very new. But they're all doodles I did in the little lined notebook I carry around with me.

Hm... what do I have here...
Drawing height comparisons amuses me not just because of the obvious height difference, but also because of the "heads tall" rules applied. Amanda generally uses the fashion model 10 heads tall and Lance usually falls around 9 heads. What that means to me is when I draw Danny at the stocky 6 or 7 heads tall, Danny's head ends up bigger than Lance's, even though Lance has more than a foot on him. Hah. The other fun one is that Sheeba's head is almost the same size as Lance's, though she barely brushes his chest.

Under the height comparison is my, uh, page of Lance's ass. I was playing with fashion and pocket types and whatnot... but it boils down to his butt. Sue me, I love drawing that guy.

Under that's some random Lance doodling and a lot of fashion stuff. When I have a fashion idea I tend to try them out on my doodles first, though I also just create fashions on the fly a good deal of the time. It's just fun. Being able to create clothes that look good on my characters is a blast, and I usually don't even realize they're not common fashions until someone comments on the designs!

Clothes design huh, I like the one with striped pants and the hat!!! is good that you keep old sketches, when I try to draw someting and I do not finish it, it usually last a week or two.

Eh, it's not really the same thing. I don't tend to keep most unfinished drawings that aren't turning out, though I do have a huge stack of them that now date back quite a few years which I poke through occasionally. These are just doodles in a notebook I carry around for the purpose of doodling and writing.

Really great gestures! Also, why haven't you pursued being a shoe designer? Really, my feeling of coveting on some of these is reaching fatal levels over here.
