This submission was done for the Tool Shark drawing prompt. Check out more submissions here!I had fun imagining this one. Not an extraordinary drawing, but enough for my 50% time.

Good stuff man. I like the small strokes you've put onto the body of this lil' guy -- really grounds its cartoonishness, imo
Thank you!
As picking the right pen for homeworks is a big thing when starting DaB, I thought it was fun to include it in a prompt drawing.
This recommendation is really just for those of you who've reached lesson 6 and onwards.
I haven't found the actual brand you buy to matter much, so you may want to shop around. This one is a "master" template, which will give you a broad range of ellipse degrees and sizes (this one ranges between 0.25 inches and 1.5 inches), and is a good place to start. You may end up finding that this range limits the kinds of ellipses you draw, forcing you to work within those bounds, but it may still be worth it as full sets of ellipse guides can run you quite a bit more, simply due to the sizes and degrees that need to be covered.
No matter which brand of ellipse guide you decide to pick up, make sure they have little markings for the minor axes.
