Space-knight concept

Today's random quickies! :)

Caliban

Caliban from 'The Tempest'. I think every other character in the play had been rather unfair to him. One cannot be branded a bad guy just because one looks conventionally bad, is the son of a witch, and possesses a free will (unlike Ariel who didn't know any better than to follow every single order given by Prospero)

The Kabuliwala

A drifter had come to our door a few days ago asking for food and clothes. He reminded me verymuch of the Kabuliwala from Tagore's Story. Maybe I will see him again someday, maybe I wont. I would like to think that he has a home with a wife and a little daughter to go back to. He did not by any means look evil or the kind who'd have drugged kidnapped children in his sack. He looked a bit gloomy and weary though.The cynic in me tells me that it could have been a practiced expression. One that he puts on every time after ringing a doorbell. Maybe its just my defense mechanism getting triggered so as to not let me feel guilty about being unable to do anything remarkably kind for him. But he seemed grateful for what little he received - old clothes and some fruits. As the days pace by, I couldn't help but take some time off to doodle my version of him. Maybe deep down inside me, there still is a hint of guilt!

Ms. Raven

Here is a quick product of multiple inspirations. Mix a good part of Neil Gaiman's description of the crow-lady in Anansi boys with an equal part of Death from The Sandman, add a dash of Edgar Allen Poe's poem Nevermore, and voila!..you have Ms. Raven.

Shiv

The Hindu God of Destruction - Qick character design from an ongoing project

More 30-90 min warmups

The hummingbird


Tiny black wings twinkling green and gold,
These droplets of joy that our hearts behold.
Spreading colors and magic they flit and fly,
Coming and going in the blink of an eye

Inspired by some poem I chanced upon a long time back. Cant seem to remember anything except for "blink of an eye" though. So I made up the rest :D

30 - 90 min warmups

HE MANA little homage to the first ever hero who got me glued to the tv. My version of him, of course. I hope I don't offend the fans out there. And three cheers to HE MAN. Who else can possibly venture out into the freezing cold night in his bare essentials and manage to not get his you-know-what icicled? !!
Caught in the loop
Picture perfect :)
Will be adding more to this post!
