Okay, folks. I am now officially obsessed with Sideshow Bob, and this picture proves it. Gah, I can't believe I've already drawn three pics of him in three days! And this one in particular took SOOO long to finish! I must have spent at least three hours just sketching it. Inking and coloring took another four hours. Most of my art only takes about half that time. It's 7 a.m. now. I just stayed up all night working on this! Aside from the f---ed-up shadows on the wall and floor, I am very, very, VERY proud of this picture. ^_^
Not sure exactly how I came up with it, though. I just knew I wanted to draw Bob in a dashing pose, then that somehow led to me looking up yoga positions. While scanning Google images, I came across a photo of a woman in almost this same exact pose. The rest is history.
Could Bob be showing off his contortionist skills (if this counts as contortion? I sure as heck couldn't pull it off!) to someone special? Or could he be admiring himself in a mirror? Either way, I love his casual sweatsuit/pajamas. I'm sure it grants him extra comfort in this position. XD
Yeah, I just hated that pot belly the animators gave him, so I refused to draw him with it. He has a very slender body in the show anyway, if you look past that paunch. His arms, legs, hands and feet are all long and thin. And he is a pretty flexible guy!
Or this one?
Yeah, those work!
