dailies 2013: 1/1-1/5.

here are the first batch of 2013 dailies, which were snagged on an unexpected glitch as i tried to upload them today:

 (tuesday, january 1st)

(wednesday, january 2nd)

 

(thursday, january 3rd)

 (friday, january 4th)

(saturday, january 5th)

as you might be able to tell, i was very enthusiastic to begin this year's dailies on graph paper, to better anchor the hand-lettering in spacing/scale. i have a very lovely red sketchbook full of a week's worth of work and then! a scanning nightmare. i overlooked the fact that the grid in my beautiful new sketchbook is in fact grey, not blue, and as such is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to remove cleanly from the background of my drawings. hours of fiddling/internet sleuthing later, and i still have no good solution. if you have one, i would love you forever if you shared your secrets. if not... looks like i'll just have to cry myself to sleep. have a great week, everybody!
