Archibald Snatcher from 'The Boxtrolls'!! 🧀

Boxtrolls is the true autism movie watch it

So, summertime is over and it’s autumn outside, which days are still pretty warm.

It’s a shame I had to spend most of the time traveling, visiting stuff and being busy with entrance examinations to the master’s program, because that is the reason I didn’t draw much.

The class schedule’s pretty confusing, so I’ll get to know about it and get clarification at tomorrow’s meeting at my university, because there’s hope that I’ll have more spare time.

In any case, I succeeded in starting to work on redrawing stuff of the concept art drawn by Mike Smith for “The Boxtrolls”, where the early versions of Archibald Snatcher, Eggs, Winnie, Fish, Shoe and some cabbagehead dude were portrayed. I want to draw the same thing, but with the final appearances of the given characters. I still don’t use the tablet or something like that, so I do all the sketches traditionally and that kind of stuff takes a lot of time.

And as you’ve probably guessed, it took a lot of time to portray Archie, but I’m pretty satisfied with the result of my kinda hard work, so I decided to post the sketch of him first to put on airs a bit. I dare say I enjoyed drawing him that carefully, I would call it a character study as well at some point. 

Long story short, I’m happy with the complete sketch and I want you to share that feeling with me too! Hope you like it!
