Aboard MY ship?



If what I draw is a reflection of what I'm thinking about, today I've been thinking about elderly spaceship admirals (and yes, it might not be obvious, but he's commanding a spaceship, not a... well... sea ship)
He actually started or, at least, another sketch -which you're not going to see- started as a supervillain. You see, I bought Soon I Will Be Invincible (just what I'd do: buy a fun novel during my exam period).
I also haven't managed to start studying since... well... two days ago. I go way too easy on myself. I need to get my ass in gear.
I've noticed that my sketches tend to look like they've been stretched vertically. I imagine it's because I draw on a table (or in bed) and not on an angled drawing board. I'll have to see what I can do about that.
It's nice that the fact that I'm producing a lot of work (or, at least, more work than I used to) makes it easier for me to spot the things I need to work on while allowing me to make general statements like the one above about my art.

Why am I getting MAJOR Serenity alerts in the back side (and not backside, I say) of my brain here? Is it the framing/'photography' of the sketch? Is it just the fact that you drew it and I first watched Firefly with you? Hmmm... ne'ermind.

Still, get yourself studying, man... You're the one who was impressed by my dad an' all! ;)
Or not. Just keep us happy and sketch... :X

I was actually thinking of Battlestar Galactica but oh well...
I have a lot of shows to catch up to.

I'm only using the internet at work and on other people's computers, so I'm hoping that'll help me study.
