Wow! You guys take it serious. I just sketch whatever quickly and take a picture with the cell phone.

 

I was on my way to work yesterday and had about 10 minutes before I had to leave. I thought that I would check FPN for updates. I came across @LizEF's comment above and the phase, "Like I do". It sounded like something Yoda might say. So I looked up Yoda on Wikipedia, made a quick sketch, and posted it. It turned out to be a feminine-appearing Yoda, but that's how it goes. I was only about 3 minutes late to work.

I'm still trying to figure out how to list all my pens down here.

:lol:  That's dedication!

When one is inspired to draw a stickman, one has to act. And then everything takes one or two minutes longer than one had planned. Normally, I would have drawn a draft first, but the "original" was good enough, so I went with it. I am not sure to which species Yoda belongs, but they are humanoid, so I would guess there are females as well as males. I didn't intend for this result, but my version turned put to be feminine. @LizEF saw some resemblance, but that was unintentional. I did consider putting some rectangular glasses on the creature, but I was running out of time. Of course, it is never too late. 

 

As I was on my way out-the-door, I used my nearest full pen, a Pilot Custom 823. I usually take two to work with me, filled with Pilot blue-black ink. I keep the Moleskine graph notebook on my desk to write down any notes, so it was handy, too. 

 

Dedicated Stick Figure Drawers (DSFDs) should be prepared to produce one quickly, at any time.

“Drop trou! Drop trou!”

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

I think that it is fair to say that @nealc is now an official (pair of) DSFDs. image.jpeg.ae5e8ec0577643121b62fa4d61331032.jpeg

Another hasty one. --Which also serves to illustrate the last quote I sent on another thread

(Drawn in-flight with the only writing instrument I brought with me on this trip. Not having my pencils, erasers, fine-nibbed fountain pens filled with waterproof black outlining ink, etc. is annoying; so is only having my phone and neither laptop nor tablet to more easily and flexibly edit the images prior to uploading.)
