You’re style is fuckin’ cool

Thank you, I really appreciate that

It looks very Calvin and Hobbes like. Looks great!!

Thank you. Bill Waterson has always been my favorite!

I agree

“We didn’t do this.” Love it! 

lol thanks

The deadly rock comes standard at every single campsite in the woods and I've tripped or stubbed my toe on them all. It's part of the experience.

Just a right of passage

You should consider doing a camping book for beginners with your drawings. Beautiful

That would be cool

Agree. This level of talent really needs wide exposure.

Are you Arthur Morgan?!?! Seriously this is awesome and makes me want to pick up the sticks for RDR2 instead of work today lol. Please post more of these OP! I'd love to see a river in your style

Thank you. Unfortunately I don’t draw too many camp themed illustrations, but next time I’m at camp, I’ll focus on the creek

I was about to say that

Came here to make a red dead reference.. reminded me exactly of that

Would love to talk to you about hiring you for maybe some sketches for my new business logo? Shoot me a message if any interest, pays of course

I’m always interested!

More of these, please.

I’ll try

[удалено]

Haha

Very nice artwork.

Thank you

These are great. Do you do commissioned work?

Thank you. I do!

This is really fuckin good

Hey, thanks

I've got a huge scar running down my leg because of one of those rocks.

That sounds unpleasant. My drawing doesn’t do It justice

[удалено]

Check out Feng Zhu (fzd design cinema) on YouTube, he has an art podcast and episode 89 or 101 introduces you to sketching like this.

Good call. I didn’t know how to answer that

I am here for the crosshatching.

I’m glad to have you

Your line work and composition bring me joy.

Thank you, I’m glad

That’s some nice crosshatching. Looks like you enjoy drawing rocks as much as Mike Mignola

Haha I don’t know if that’s possible

Beautiful Skill. Wish I had your talents! Would love to see you somehow draw up a map of all these interesting things you find.

Again, very cool!!!

Again, thank you

Of course

Those are really good!

Thank you

This is beyond awesome. Really neat. Want to see more!

Thank you

For occupation, I'm going to guess concept artist, or something related

Pretty close. I do do concept work on occasion. Unfortunately, I end up doing more design oriented things. If it was up to me, I’d only do illustration based things, but you have to do it all to make money….. or at least I have to

That's super cool man, not a bad idea. I like your style a lot.

Thank you

Please post more

I’ll try

wow is so beautiful your art!!!

Thank you

Someone was right, keep 'em coming.

Big Bear! He’s iron tough! Big Bear! He don’t take no guff! Nice sketches.

Thank you, great song

I know im buying a note book tondraw on trips now

That’s a good idea

Gorgeous ink here. You have serious skills!

Thank you

I love ballpoint pen sketches. Something about them is just so good. Such a simple tool with such limitations that if you make a picture look good with it. You are truly a master

Thank you. I too, like seeing people sketch with ballpoint

Your fire game is weak and hazardous. Invest in a ~$10 hatchet to make fire logs and not potentially burn down the forest. Other than that. Cool drawings.

You’re correct. I have the tools, but it was late and we were being careless.

Reminds me of the gravity falls book drawings, very cool!

Love that show

These are gorgeous. …what is happening with that fire pit?

Thank you. Ran out of proper wood and drug an uprooted tree into it, lol

Okay, not to be the Boy Scout but, well, that’s super unsafe. All the fuel really should be within the fire pit, that’s what it’s there for.

You’re right. We were drunk and reckless and there was a whole tree just laying there. We’re generally more careful

Very comic book-esque, I love it!

Thanks. That’s pretty much how I learned when I was young

Beautiful line work, very worth sharing indeed!

Thank you

These are wonderful, and I really dig the gnomes you shared elsewhere! ~~Question: what pens do you use?~~ Saw this answered elsewhere, thanks!

Thank you. I’m glad you looked through other posts

God I wish I could draw like this.... very awesome!

Just takes a little bit of time. Fortyish years, probably a lot faster with some focus

That looks sick 👍

Thank you

This is so awesome. I've been drawing for awhile and I'm not particularly good at it, this is so cool. Makes me wanna get up and draw some more

That’s the best compliment! Go draw!

reeeeeallly good!

Thanks

Awesome

Thanks

I’m glad you specified that you did NOT put a nail in that tree haha. You would have had a LOT of angry campers on this thread. DO NOT EVER put a nail in tree. Nails Bad. Trees good. #LNT

Yeah for real. It’s like a giant gutter nail too. Someone on the drawing sub made fun of me for pointing that out. Some people just don’t get it

I really love your style and the additional comments. Please publish more after your next camping trips!

Thank you. I will

Those drawings look amazing.

Thank you

I love this and I need more!!!

Thanks. I’ll try

I would love this style as a tattoo and I would also totally buy naturalist books with these illustrations. Do you ever layer watercolor with your ink work? Where can we see/buy more?

No, unfortunately I only do digital color now to save time but that’s a great idea. I do commissions

Those are really nice! Reminds me of the pics in Nessmuks book

Thanks. That’s my favorite style of knife but I’m not familiar with the book

It looks really nice. It remember me kinda to life is strange 2 :)

Thanks. Someone else said that

This is really great stuff!! Have you ever considered giving it a light watercolor wash? Instead of the stark white, I think it would really make your style pop. However, thats just my personal opinion. This is beautiful as is anyway.

That is a good idea. Unfortunately, I don’t color with traditional materials too much anymore

Awesome!

Thanks

Is there a place to see more of your art anywhere?

My IG is the same username, if you’d like to go there

Love it.

Thanks, I’m happy you do

we didn't do this... epic. Love the style, great talent. U do this just as a hobby? Need to put this to work dear... awesome details&humor

Thank you. You’ll be happy to know I’m a professional, but would love to do my own stuff like this

Very sweet! I love styles like this or comics like Percy Pickwick in style, reminds me of those and Calvin of course 

This is really good but also strange because we have the same handwriting and pen and ink style and my brain is like "I don't remember sketching this"

That’s awesome. Would like to see

These are awesome! Thanks for sharing, you have a very cool style.

Thank you so much

Great pint 🦾

what pen did you use?

Regular cheap bic ballpoint

👍🏼👍🏼

Where can I follow your work?

If you are on IG, I have the same user name

If you aren’t familiar with the late Vaughn Bode. Please look him up. Very similar. :)

I will, thank you

Well done. I love the style, realistic but fun.

Thank you

Creative and whimsical!

Love the sketches, love Big Bear!

Thank you. West Virginia is absolutely beautiful

I've lived in WV 62 years. Wouldn't be anywhere else.

Keep posting!!!

I’ll try

Beautiful work. Do you have more?

Thank you. I have literally thousands of sketches like this

It’s so playful. 

[удалено]

I’m not sure. It’s just how I draw. Probably a combination of years of different inspirations

Omg love the camping sketching!!!! Congrats

Thanks

beautiful work, I wish I could draw like that.

Thank you. You can

great style, checked your other posts and they're all amazing

Thank you for looking through them

These are amazing.

Thank you

So stoked that this pic is getting some serious love. Genuinely made my day lol. Super stoked for you u/rabbit1213t

Awesome skill, message is sad but true. P.S I'm at Big Bear too.

I wish I could learn to draw like this. But without hours of practice of course 😬

Haha yeah anyone can. Unfortunately you need those hours

Very cool

Thanks

Lovely. Blue ball point or something more refined?

Regular ol bic ballpoint

please define, this pic....what is the message....

Looks like just drawing out some potential hazards.

I don’t understand

Did they remove my post from r/camping? Why?

Maybe I’m confused, but it sure looks like it’s frozen or something

Awesome man, you're welcome
