Some Subtle Details, 3 to Atlantic (Tuesday, 2-17-09)

He kinda had the Al from Home Improvement thing going but had extraordinarily dainty fingers playing with his PDA, especially for an otherwise burly looking fellow.

The guy with the big brown yamulkah became increasingly crouched over as the drawing progressed. Couldn't tell if he was getting really into his book or nodding off. The guy on the right had the normal zone out on the train pose but his clenched fist was a subtle indication that maybe something more was going on with him.

Last moments on my 3 ride.

Waiting at Atlantic Pacific for the R/M, got drawn in by this guys's hat which seemed very muted color wise until closer examination when it began to rival josef's famous dreamcoat. Little fun details are everywhere, but easy to miss unless you pick your head up and pay attention.

Some Very Dry Markers (Tuesday, 2-17-09)

Trying to catch the spreading of the paper in a quick sketch between Union and Atlantic-Pacific. I could never handle paper reading on the train, especially the NYTimes. I found that I need like 8 feet of space around me in order to flip pages without smacking someone or turning my paper into a giant spitball.

Luckily caught this guy in a contemplative pose, which he quickly dropped out of to the general stare off into space default subway pose.

Was watching her for a bit but by the time I got to drawing her she bounced. Luckily i had my grape scented marker waiting for me when I got to my desk.

Very Red-faced in the morning.

The way her hat is cropped and with the big dark glassses, she ended up looking like an antiquefuturistic aviator. Her hat actually got more foofy out of frame to the left.
