Woke up, fed the dog and started away on some more construction exercises. This time I dug through the kid's toys and found a dinosaur toy from the land before time. Got working on that and managed a front side and 3/4 view from construction.
For the Bowler Hat Guy, I had used Autodesk's Sketchbook...for this one I used GIMP. I think I like gimp a little better but I can't figure out how to get the eraser to bind to the stylus :/
That and I realized at the end that I had been using GIMP's paintbrush to sketch rather than the pencil....
Oh... for those who aren't aware... this is a study of the style of drawing known as Construction (duh) and it's used by many 2d animators as a way of templating characters. It's different from traditional sketching in that you have to train yourself to build the object from circles and other basic geometric shapes while following guide/proportion/negative space. See JohnK's site in my links to the left for more info.
