To make this month interesting I decided to do one of those sketch a day challenges and since this is the season I decided go with the Halloween theme. Anyway I spent a bit of time getting ready for it writing a list of every monster I could think of (which was depressingly few and) and put them all into a jar so I could draw one at random.

Regrettably today I drew vampire.

It’s not that I hate vampires it’s just that they’re so damn cliche and I certainly didn’t want to start the month drawing Dracula, Lestat or $%#@ing sparkly Edward! So because of this It took me a while to get the layout right. I went in wanting to have the vampire pulling up on the woman in a taxi cab and then realized I had gotten the angle wrong and besides it was on the wrong side of the road for the drivers side of the car to be visible. But despite all that I think this was a pretty good start… even though I made her head too big.
