This is what I did yesterday. I tried doodling directly with the tablet, bypassing the usual pencil drawing and then scanning, because I don't have a scanner here. I did some basic hand drawing for inspiration, but changed it a bit when drawing on screen. The conclusion: I do need the scanner or drawing with a bigger zoom or something, because the results are quite disappointing:

Lame.

The thing is that unless you are a the correct zoom level, most of the traces you draw with the table are not actually represented in the drawing, so when I quickly did the traces for the head of a mouse (that's what the child is supposed to be holding), all the detail disappeared. I'm posting it nonetheless, so that the world can see how that evolves to something :).

And I did draw the small child looking to the left, had to play a bit with guides in Inkscape to make it proportional, but it looks fine enough. Not sure about the hands, maybe I can make the character wear prosthetic hands because that is what they look like...

I can walk.

I like the expression it has. It's missing some shadows (one under the eye), but it's still a bit of a draft.
