Sketches, drawn at a desk. Usually during lunch.

Five lunches worth of sketching. I did cheat a little and pencil in the outlines for this oviraptor.

A quick felt tip pen sketch of a Tasmanian Devil.

[desksketch]

Still very much a work in progress, and that pen nib needs to be cleaned.

[desksketch]

And now even more dots. Everywhere.

[desksketch]

Now with more dots

[desksketch]

Might clean this up further. For additional context go and read this:  Trump rips into Turnbull, calls refugee deal 'dumb'.

[desksketch]

Now this one could have gone better. I was judging dimensions by eye and going straight in with pen, and I clearly got it wrong. Another reason I need more practice.

[desksketch]

Playing around with varied plumage on a generic dinosaur. Mostly stealing from eagles and crows for ideas in that regard.

[desksketch]

Playing around with solid block shading. Which would have been a lot more fun if I had something other than a 0.5 rotring drafting pen to fill in all that black.

Also something about Komodo dragons fighting, or waltzing.

[desksketch]

So many different feather textures...

[desksketch]

Wedge Tail eagles are very interesting, and fun to draw, especially when their feathers a fluffed up. It was just a shame that my finer point pens are not functioning so I have to shade this with a 0.50 point.

Pigs may fly, better get a sturdy hat.

[desksketch]

This will need more work. I think I just about have the feel for how the body drapes at this point, but I need to do more work on the face.

[desksketch]

Might be drawing a few cats over the next week or so. And to start with, some general studies.

[desksketch]

Something a little different in terms of line work.

[desksketch]

A quick no reference material sketch of a generalised Gorganopsid. Because it's fun and I have not done too much with my 0.5 pen. It's very different to shading with a finer point.
