Sketch Book Dump #3

Nothing original here. Embarassingly these are all actually swipes. Sometimes before I've got a lot of drawing ahead of me I like to warm up with a page of quick sketching. No thinking just manual labour. I grab whatever is nearby and start the pencil moving. I fill an 11x17 page in about 10 minutes and pray that I learned something. It's also good to look at what you swiped and try to figure out why yours suck and the originals look so good. These swipes are John Byrne--I just finished reading the Essential x-Men that has the first half of his run there. So good.
