what the hell is this about?

Several friends have embarked on their own P365 journey but as I have no camera nor an eye for photography I've decided to try to complete "a doodle a day" for an entire year. Most will be in my little Derwent A5 sketch book but some could end up being from the corner of some document or scribbled on a newspaper. As the year progresses I will try my hand at inking them as well?

If some of them don't make sense, don't worry, they're probably not meant to. You may notice there will be certain themes along the way and if you know me you'll know why.

I hope you enjoy.

Okay, here goes, every day til I'm 39.

Day #98 - Hip Hop Hippo and the Crunk Skunk


Ever since watching Beat Street Hip Hop is all I have had on my mind, so naturally I've been thinking of what to draw

Then when putting Hawk to bed tonight he asked me what I was going to draw, so the quick thinking me said "Hippopotamus" to which he laughed and said you can't draw a hip-hop-amus.

He's a little genius!

So naturally he had to be in DMC threads, so whilst looking for some pics to reference to make sure I get it right I stumble upon Lil Jon and naturally think WHAT!? OKAY! YEAH!!!! and the Crunk Skunk was born.

Thanks to Peterpotamus and Pepe Le Pew for the basis and the rest is history.

I had to ink it, that skunk would have consumed 3 pencils!
