From the vault: 'Sofa Sketches' or 'DVD doodles'

Quite a collection of sketches for you today, folks. In the past, you may have heard me mention that one of my habits is to have my sketchbook open while I sit on the sofa watching DVDs. Sometimes what I sketch while watching the box has nothing to do with what I'm watching; sometimes, however, I actually draw a scene from the movie I'm watching. What can I say? I have trouble only doing one thing at a time! The following bunch of sketches are all the result of me doing just that. I hope you get a kick out of them. You may even be able to spot which movies I was watching at the time (the titles I've given the drawings will probably give some of them away, of course). There aren't prizes for guessing, though, before you get excited.
