Congrats on your Century of Drawings, Mr. Ploos!

I look at the number of pages and can say without equivocation - Now there's Eighty+

Bravo lad!

Stuff's looking Great. Getting into color. Can use it also as part of your drawing style as well, making drawing marks with a brush large and small for example. Some of Lautrec's drawings are like that and pretty tasty as well. Just as part of the fun you're clearly having.

Go man go!

Congratulations for passing 100 with such terrific new drawings, dear mate!
I found that Rowdy Yates wasn't but a TV series and the character was played by Clint Eastwood if I'm not wrong. Unfortunately I was just born in 1959 and the series was apparently not widely broadcasted in Europe.
I obviously know very well Clint Eastwood who, under Sergio Leone direction was a protagonist of those Italian made western movies who appeared as a revolution and were called here Spaghetti Western. He was therefore frequently here in Rome, in Cinecittà and all around here and in Spain where they found and set up those western scenarios and was a most appreciated star. Many other US stars were directed by Sergio Leone in those movies.
Similarly, especially in the '60ies, the period of the Dolce Vita, many other American actors (and Richard Burton as well) used to some here playing in historical movies or ancient time adventures like that of Maciste (played by an American bodybuilder), a sort of Hercules with an immense strength.

I re-read what I wrote last post. I didn't complete my thought - got distracted or something -- I meant to suggest to use color with calligraphic lines as a way for a draughtsman to put in color as opposed to a painting style or filling in the shape flatly like a TV cartoon. . . unless you're doing a painting or cartoon, in which case it's great.

The reason for the calligraphic lines is that really thin lines don't show off color. And repeating uniformly broad lines tend to be not very descriptive or interesting. So the comment was about drawing with color in your lines that imply color and jazz a brush drawing up a bit. One example is Lautrec.

But to do so you would need a graphics tablet or something that gives those kinds of thick/thin lines. And I'm not sure if you have that capability on the ipad. If not. . . nevermind!

Just as an alternative way. Not necessarily the best or not the best.

Been enjoying what you've done. Go man go!
