one day i will have some money and i will buy fireman toys because, c'mon, these are the coolest things ever!

from code 3 westchester collectibles: get outta town!
uncle sam wouldn't object to me spending my tax refund on toys, would he?
i don't really need to eat or clothe myself!
i am making a fireman paper doll (circa 1880s or thereabouts). you can see the preliminary undressed character under the cut. i ain't painted him yet and i am still working out of the details on his clothes (they are just sketched in at the moment). by the way,
bachsoprano, this is the character who owns the smelly horse named Dung.

this is Sid Strathairn, a.k.a. Sarge, a.k.a., Isaac Doster. if you are wondering at all why this post is tagged andersonville, it's because this is the principal character in my andersonville story.
i had a heck of a time with his hair. it's hard to draw long hair on a guy without making him look girly. the five o'clock shadow helps. i'm still designing his leather coat and whatnot. i'll post him again later when he's more complete. maybe with a dog or two.
and honestly, i don't have that many characters with long hair. Sid wears his long to cover bullet hole scars on his head (warning: graphic images of head wounds).

i've never tried to draw Dung. hmmm. i actually don't have any backstory for the horse either. i'll have to give Dung some thought.
