September roughs

Sketches you didn't see

The saxophone player somehow ended up looking like Ira Steven Behr, a television writer and producer most famous for being the showrunner of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine back int eh 1990s. The likeness was unintentional, even though DS9 is my favorite Trek series.

For every cartoon I draw there are usually 3-5 rough sketches you don’t see. I publish those sketches, along with commentary, for paid subscribers over at Pepperspectives. I want to (try to) start posting the roughs here, sans commentary, at the end of each month.

I try to draw these roughs in 20 minutes or less. They don’t need to be perfect. They just have to get the general idea across. Often I find that I like the roughs better than the finished cartoons.

Help me keep the lights on and the cartoons flowing. Consider becoming a paid subscriber to Kevin’s UnNecessary Things. Your support allows me to draw more cartoons and speak truth to power. You can also support me by leaving me a one-time tip on Ko-fi, or by clicking here to visit my Etsy store, where you can purchase signed prints of my cartoons.
