Hmm, why in Wonderland didn't I post these in this guild sooner anyway? Perhaps I was too busy smoking my hookah and writing poetry? Yes... maybe thats it.

Anyway, here is a couple sketches I did of the Jabberwock, they arn't shaded or coloured; I could always colour them on the computer later of course.

Jabberwock Sketch 1

Jabberwock Sketch 2

Any comments?

Edit - Question near the bottom of the page.

I love how long and lithe you made him(or her as it may be) here, it makes him that bit more creepy (because humans have an instinctual fear of anything with limbs bigger than it's own body 3nodding (hence arachnophobia))

Also loving his little jacket, adds a bit of personality and sort of makes you wonder if he's really as bad as he seems at first glance (but then again, is there usualy such a thing as a badly dressed villan?)

Good stuff, keep it up Azure

Ah, thank you guys. I was wondering if I should try drawing more of the Wonderland inhabitants and post the pictures in this forum.

Its something to do after all. ^_^

O.O

He's brilliant!!!

I agree, he makes me wonder if he's really as bad as the poem makes him out.

he looks rather intelligent, maybe a bit insane, but who isn't in wonderland?

Are you intending to color him? Because I am anxious to see him completed

in the meantime heart heart heart heart

I'm unsure, do you think I should colour him? It could take a while, especially if I'm doing both pictures. XD

Thanks anyways. ^_^

I like it. The Jabberwock seems very proper now. I think he'd be british.

The vest makes him seem like he'd be quite polite before he gets you. Like, the kindness would lure you in.

I could just imagine him sitting at a tabel alone with lil bits of human hanging out out his mouth. He'd burp and just be like. "Oh, pardon me." Then gently dab his chin with a napkin. =P

It's a shame really isn't it?

People do taste so nice :U
The smell as you walk past the beaches in hot countries -which England certainly is NOT. Especialy at the minute. Yuck xp - and smell the aroma of BACON xd

I think the vest is a really cute touch on the Jabberwock... 3nodding

Thanks. The original illustration gave the impression he was wearing one. ^_^

Hmmm, I'm thinking of trying to draw a lot of the Wonderland characters in my style. I have a few questions though.

Do you think it would be a good idea to post both the sketch and a CG coloured version of each picture?

And does anyone have any specific characters they'd like me to try and draw?

Should I post them all in one topic to be updated or individual topics as I complete each picture?

BTW I'm atm sketching the Cheshire Cat. ^_^

All I have is you (It is all that I'm breathing for)
All I need is you (Now I can't make it through)


You should definitely draw Alice, Hatter, and of course, yourself.
^_^
I think posting both sketched and coloured version would be a good idea.
x.x
And you should post it all in one thread to update a you go so the forum doesn't get too cluttered and you can keep it all together
^_^
Very nice work on the Jabberwock, btw
I think everyone else already aid thing I thought to say
T.T
And YAY!
Can't wait to see your Cheshire
♥♥♥

Thanks. ^_^

Okay so Alice, the Hatter and the Caterpillar are to be drawn.

I've started colouring one of the Jabberwock pics as well... its taking a while. >_>

Any other suggestions people?
