Comments on: Ape Lad's sketchbook scanned to Flickr http://boingboing.net/2008/06/12/ape-lads-sketchbook.html Brain candy for Happy Mutants Sun, 26 May 2013 01:35:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.1 By: noen http://boingboing.net/2008/06/12/ape-lads-sketchbook.html#comment-210458 noen Wed, 30 Nov -0001 00:00:00 +0000 #comment-210458 I liked #35 the best. It really captured a nice mood. One thing that worries me about putting things up on Flickr is theft. I know, CC license and all that. I still worry about it. I do see that Ape Lad had low resolution pics up. Maybe that is a disincentive. I liked #35 the best. It really captured a nice mood.

Then I ran into a line of sketchbooks called the <a href=http://www.amazon.com/journal-landscape-sketching-5-5x8-25-ultramarine/dp/B000UZZBB8>"hand•book"</a> from Global Art Materials - they have the same sizes as the Moleskines, the bands and the back pockets, and much nicer paper. Plus they come in several colors, and varieties bound in both portrait and landscape. A green landscape-bound hand•book is my current purse sketchbook; I don't think I'm ever buying another Moleskine again. “Probably my last moleskine till they make a small one with white paper.”

Ape Lad should see if he could become one of the rotating artists on the relaunched Amazing Spider-Man--his J. Jonah Jameson is perfect! Nice!
