Graphite Gang

I've been very remiss in my Oddments (just too much on my plate) but last night I did manage a little pencil doodle for IF's "Suspense" prompt. I don't know what this lot are up to but it doesn't look good.

Pencil on paper, ~ 4"x4"

p.s. This has nothing to do with oddments, but a wonderful artist friend of mine, Allison Sommers, could really use your help: her beloved pet hedgehog Ludwig has developed a tumor & she is having a sale to raise medical funds. If you would like to buy some amazing art & help a suffering beastie, please go here or here.

  1. This is so beautiful. Your hands create magic. I was just watching a show on National Geo about hedgehogs and porcupines.

  3. Those are some crazy creatures! I wouldn't want to run into them. :O Well done. You have a lot of very nice work on your site. I'm glad I stopped by. :)

  4. First, I looked at them as 'beasties' and then I looked at them as 'guys' and said, 'Oh My" ! Just amazing what a pencil can do.

  5. I just want you to know that your illustration inspired me to do an IF post today! :)

  6. What a great bunch of criminally-minded thug monsters. I'm pretty sure the one in back is the mastermind. The front right is not quite as bright, and the one on the left is a mercenary out for his own glory. [Next, a tv show!]

  7. Your drawing reminds me of Sara Jarosz's song Shankill Butchers.

    Thanks for sharing the wonderfully sinister drawing.
