L is for Lem

Day...12? Of the A-Z Blogging Challenge. Read here for more.

Guess who is back to his own would-be fantasy novel with today's sketch? After taking a single day off I'm sure everyone is beside themselves anticipating the next thing from my sprawling tale of deceit and betrayal. And people wandering around in the woods... a lot.

Today it's Lem, the town doctor, holding one of his surgical tools in the picture I provided. The character looks somewhat seedy, he is not. I mean, he's smiling and everything.

He does struggle a bit in standing up for himself however, it makes things hard for him when he's pressured to do things he'd rather not.

Seedy? He looks positively evil!

He does look a little shady. So, he's a nice town doctor? :)

He looks like Jack Nicholson in "The Shining" or something. I definitely wouldn't want him to give me a prostate exam.

He reminds me a little of the Gentlemen in the Hush episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And hey, they carries scalpels too. But he sounds a bit nicer than them haha.

He is a little sketchy.

Reminds me of Nixon, pleading for his life.

He looks evil.

He does look more than a little diabolical. I think it's the hands.

If I saw him anywhere, I would go the other way. He does look wicked.

The look on his face is freaking me out a bit . . . and he doesn't seem to be holding that knife in a friendly way.

Well done! Not only writing the book but drawing the characters too!

So cool that your theme is a sketch a day! Love it. I haven't checked out all your posts yet but I will be!

Unknown said...

Are these your drawings? Cool! But what a creepy theme! Seeds for nightmares!
