 Johnny Stix

After seeing a movie called The Hustler, with Paul Freaking Newman, I came up with a bunch of hard livin' characters for a cartoonist pool gambling story based world on the inspirations of the movie. Was a damn good movie. Johnny Stix is your average pool playing shlub, who swims with sharks, gets in too deep, and then gets cut! Ooooo the verbiage.

Sauced Sally

Real name being Selina, Sauced Sally (named after the collective community) is the depressing, drunk, and miserable love interest of Johnny Stix in the pool story idea I got from watching the movie The Hustler. She's based on the actual girl who is the love interest of Paul Newman's character in the movie. Sally's dad however, is a big Pool Shark Mafia Don or sorts. She got to drinkin' her life away because of her mother's death and runs into Johnny Stix at a pool tournament.

this sketch is more clean because I drew it after Johnny Stix. But these were both drawn around the same time.
