More Train People

Train people

Here's some sketches from the train trip home yesterday evening of unsuspecting passengers done with a fineliner pen. It was a bit of fun trying to pick interesting people to draw, the carriage wasn't overly full, so all people were seated, and I'd been hoping to draw someone standing in one of those various train-ride standing poses where they're trying to maintain their balance and either read or pass the boredom of the trip.

The funny thing about doing these sketches on this ride was that the fat guy I drew first in the top pic was deserted by his traveling companion halfway through the trip, and as he wasn't sitting far in front of me, must've figured out what I was doing and started watching me scope out the passengers and draw them. He kept trying to make eye contact with me, perhaps to get some sign of acknowledgement.

Tool

There's been this 16 year old larrikin in the news a lot last week, who threw an open house party while his parents were away and attracted 500 "guests". As well as all the brouhaha about the police being called out and possible fines and his lack of remorse; his fashion sense has garnered a bit of attention.
Here's my sketch from on the train home one night with a bit of photoshop embellishment.

Train Girl

A quick sketch of a girl sitting opposite me on the train home at the end of last year.
She was originally drawn on the newspaper I'd been reading.
She had a prominent long neck which was too tempting to draw and I'd been in caricature mode too.
