In Which Maggie is Late Again

Feb 25, 2009 12:48

I'm getting good at this! By which I mean, flakier and flakier. I cleaned and reorganized my room yesterday, throwing out about 15 pounds of clothing and other items. I've got two beds now, and Daniel and I slept very comfortably there for the first time in several weeks!

Speaking of Daniel, here's another portrait:


He's much less pretty in this one. Oddly, he looks like a cross between himself and Nicolai. I was drawing him from below, and he needs more space between his profile and ear/hairline. The shading is also off. Basically, it's terrible.

Here's a much, much more successful drawing of Robbie:


I've discovered that it's very difficult to draw Robbie poorly. He's distinctive, but not so out of the ordinary that his face isn't built the same.

I drew some more insects, by the way. I think I'm rapidly burning out on them, but they're still fun to do and nice to look at I guess. Karis' favorite is in this batch:



Dung beetle, pictured with dung



Flea! Drawn to scale.



firefly! I enjoy this one a lot, too, but I don't think it's my favorite (unlike Karis). I think if I worked on the design a little more it might be, though.

there are still a pile of napkin insects that I haven't scanned yet (maybe seven of them). I keep forgetting them at home. They'll be up soon too though, I hope.
