Allright, it's time for my next WIP. And for this one I'm doing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Fossil#Bob_Fossil - Bob Fossil from the Mighty Boosh. Right now I've just got a rough sketch but I'm hoping to make it better obviously.

Things I know need fixing right now.
- his posture, it's all screwed up. I think his left leg needs to be more behind his right.
- his face, obviously.

I'm wondering if I should make this bigger. Thoughts? I'll work on this and post an update soon.

The legs do look a little funky.

And good to see you around these parts again. Good luck with this.

Holy sh*tsauce! A revision.

It looks much better larger, I think. I might consider doing more than just the torso once I get the torso mastered.

I was lucky to happen by http://fc09.deviantart.com/fs42/f/2009/059/e/c/Bob_Fossil_top1_by_the_mighty_bollo.jpg - this fantastic ref pic to help me out in my positioning. I'm obviously going to need to fix the hands, but I started with just a rough shade so that I can perfect it easier.

My big problem with it now is the face and the right shoulder. I'm not so fantastic on faces as I tend to draw them too simply. Any crits on where I should focus?
