Starting a Project for Richard

Okay, so I have a friend who has asked me to do a series of him bowling. I started working on it today, and realized something. I am really rusty with non-acrylic material. I don't think I've struggled so much with a piece since I was in high school. Anyways, here's what I managed to create. It is not the final product, but rather some rough sketches to get me to where I need to be.

If you couldn't tell, the last piece is done in acrylic and is way better than the two above it. Anyways, it's time for a break.
