Hibachi READY!!!

Posted by WillTerrell On August - 31 - 2010

I love the Chinese Kitchen restaurant in Lubbock.  I eat there at least once a month.   The food is great, but the staff are all characters.  This guy in particular cracks me up.  He’s always smiling, and you can tell he really loves his job.  He doesn’t speak english well, but as soon as that Hibachi is done he yells out “Hibachi READYY!!”  The best is when the customer has no idea what he’s saying, so he repeats it four or five times.

Sketch Lubbock – August

Posted by WillTerrell On August - 24 - 2010

My wife Amber and I sketch people every where we go.  Its a lot of fun, but its also great training.  I am always trying to capture the way that a person walks, stands, sits, or carries themselves.  It makes it a lot easier when I’m drawing pages or illustrations, to draw from experience, than to try to figure it out from my own head.  Here’s a handful of the sketches from this month.  The top sheet is from Taco Villa, the middle is from Barnes and Noble, and the bottom is from Market Street grocery store.  Its rare that people actually notice me drawing them, but not uncommon for other people to see what I’m doing and come over to take a look.  I’m always amazed at how excited they get at seeing people being drawn.  No matter what race, or culture.  Everyone loves art.

Bubba loves Mom.

Posted by WillTerrell On August - 20 - 2010

I was in Houston a while back as a guest at Comicapalooza.  I really enjoyed the show, but I especially enjoyed hanging out with old friends.  Some of my buddies wanted to go to this hole in the wall cowboy bar to meet a girl.  I ended up sketching some of the wildlife.  This guy was hilarious.  I don’t think he actually had a mom tattoo, but he was showing it off like that.  He loved the sketch too and bought us a round of drinks.  Thats why I love cowboy bars, I can sketch a couple of hours and walk out with a couple hundred bucks in tips and full of beer.  Plus, you get the privilege of meeting characters in real life.

Dexter Dweeble

This gentleman’s name is Dexter Dweeble.  He is a mild mannered fellow, who has an unnatural affinity for Liverworst sammiches.

I don’t know who he is exactly, but he looks familiar.  At first he was fun to draw, then it started creeping me out a little, so I had to stop.  I hate it when drawings do that to me.

Redneck gamers

You can thank my wonderful fiance’ for this lovely image.  After her regaling me of an unfortunate photo she’d run across of a slovenly gamer in his natural state, I could not help but try to transcribe the somewhat disturbing visual of his v-shaped butt-cleavage and bulging skin-tight clothing .   This is the result. Enjoy.
