Pink came to me with this idea, so I figured why not?
Here's a thread for sketching exercises for anyone who wants to be a part of it. There are no themes, no rules (other than those pre-established for this subtopic), and no restrictions other than yourself.
Actually, that's a lie. The rule is to try to do and show a sketch at least once a day. It doesn't have to be finished or colored, and it can be in any medium. Also, please make sure to provide a link to large images (more than 500 pixels in any direction) in order to keep the page tidy looking and to go easy on people's bandwidths.

If you need help looking for a starting point, go here and click on the 'Themes' button. This is (one of) the standard 100 themes challenge(s) for artists that can be found over the internet. It doesn't necessarily have to apply for just manga. It can be for anything.
As a suggestion (but not a rule), try experimenting with a style or subject matter that you don't often deal with. You never know when you'll hit gold, and this thread is all about practice and growth.

Here's a list of current contenders!
LiteracyScaresMe (me)
Pink
Poppin
J
Xachariah
Rusti

The list will be updated as more people come to join up.
So, get sketching!

Is it bad that I saw one of those faces in Poppin's sketch just then and thought "Yaranaika"?

Screw it, I'mma join this thread at some point this coming week.

Not a sketch, but a suggestion.

http://www.imgur.com does some pretty neat image hosting. Free and all that rubbish. Allows for thumbnail shots or the full thing.

I'll totally do something tomorrow. Need to draw myself a new desktop background, anyway.

Or I'll have trouble looking at my old background and have to draw a new one!

Sketch #7 for 11-2-09

I rarely ever do a drawing of Hikari/Uyraies that I like. I like this one. Did this with a Cintiq, which only makes me want one more.

There's a lot of red in her skin for a reason, bee-tee-dubs.

While I don't think I'll have enough time to do it daily, I will try to post weekly.
A pie for whomever guesses who this is, with a twist.

Never played GoW, but I'm guessing Kratos.

Commission I'm working on for Furr.

Next up is Rusti's. You guys have every right to slay me for not pumping these out in a timely manner. Actually, Rusti can slay me more.

P.S. - The ONLY reason why my lines are so nice is because they were done in Illustrator, which is a vector based program, and it was taken at a huge ass resolution. Doing linework with tablets sucks and I hate it.

InuYasha fanart.
To be sold at anime conventions when it's done.

You know, I never used to like Kikyo when I was younger. I've been recently taking (kind of) a shine back to the series again, and I'm finding that I really like her. Kagome, not so much.
Still, I wish they would've wrapped the damn series up earlier. Fuckin' ugh, broken record.
