Also, I was digging around in our bookcase where we keep our multitude of sketchbooks and came across one from 2006-2007. Most of the doodles were pretty terrible... okay, they were ALL terrible, but there were some that sucked less than others. I found one of Princess Mononoke (my very first introduction to the Miyazaki world) and thought it might be fun to redraw it now that I have a little bit of anatomy and character know-how floating around in my brain.
