Description I haven't drawn Douglas Adams' group of Hitchhikers for a long time.
Besides my drawing ability has improved quite a bit since then so I am able to get them further towards looking what matches in my head when either listening to the radio series or reading the book.

I also took the opportunity to get a bit more practice with OpenCanvas in.

Enjoy DNA fans!

Brilliant work.
Arthur looks spot on.
Ford looks weird...I suppose alien, a little evil...kinda, maybe.

Well, I wanted Ford to be humanoid but with a little oddness to him. There's something strange about him that you can't quite put your finger on...

nice! At from Ford and Arthur at the top, I thought, "Ah, he's drawing them from the mini-series!"
And then it went down to Zaphod and Trillian, and I was like, "Uh, this looks more like the Movie ones now"
And then Marvin... sorta looks like a combination.

I like these renditions, they seem spot-on

Although I did read the books before I saw the Tv series (and way before the movie came out), I had seen a picture of the TV Arthur and Ford which rather influenced my mental image somewhat. It is very hard not to imagine Arthur as strongly resembling Simon Jones.

Oh, and I think you mean "SHE is drawing them..."

O.o She! Oh oops! I somehow thought you were male

Mmm, well, Arthur is and always should be Simon Jones

Sweet renditions of the characters! *sigh* It reminds me how much I liked reading that book...I think I'll have to reread it once the marching band season is over...

Nice work! Your mental images tally quite well with mine...

Wait, is this supposed to be Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy? If not, I apologize, don't kill me. *hides head* I'd like to know who it is if it isn't, cause I didn't recognize the abbreviantion at the bottom.

Don't worry, it is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!

The initials at the bottom stand for Douglas Noel Adams -it's how he was otherwise known.

thank you for not "movie-fying" them <3

No problem!

I did rather enjoy the movie but (for obvious reasons) prefer to stick with my own imaginings when it comes to depicting the characters!
