Capn Ahab


Ive been reading Moby Dick, and decided to draw captain Ahab at my 20 minute break at work today. It was done with a ballpoint pen that was low on ink and a crappy piece of papier. It has to be Ahab pre-mutilation however. because i forgot his peg leg.

i fucking love this drawing. the hands and face are pefect, and i haven't seen you do this kind of hatching too much before. do more of it! the looseness it gives your drawing is really interesting. i double dog dare you to do more like this.

Oh no. He just DOUBLE dog dared you!

How about Captain Ahab Vs. Captian Nemo???! That would be insane!
