Excrement and cocks. Excrement and cocks.
I can't wait till we get reviewers that don't have some kind of obsession with poo and willies. --------------------

Drawing is hard.
![]() I remember when this used to feel like the most natural thing in the world, but lately I really am struggling with trying to draw. I mean I was originally going for a very different look (which I don't think I achieved at all) and now I've just sort of reverted to something closer to my regular style. I suppose it was an interesting learning experience, or something. Give me another couple of hours and I'll hate this re-draw too. An artist's mercurial temperament?--------------------

It's such a good thing there is no history of artists going crazy and doing insane stuff, like I dunno… cutting off their ears or anything… or I might be in real strife.

Originally posted by Xkeeper Oh, I absolutely believe it. Art/illustration/design/music are all very funny things this way… you start doing one thing and it turns out absolutely completely different to how you started or intended. I am never sure if this is a lack of skill thing, that is… if I had more skill, would I be able to bring the visions in my head to life properly… or if even very skilled artists have this problem. I do know it is frustrating as all hell. I've also come to the conclusion I need some kind of artistic sounding-board to tell me when things are off because after hours and hours with something you start to not see the problems with them.

Starting to do the shading.
![]() Um… sorry to ask this, but am I talking to myself in this thread? Besides Xkeeper and Pandaren, is anyone actually interested in me continuing this? I ask because, well… if no-one's interested, I'll just work solidly without giving updates or anything. --------------------

Ahh, thankyou. And keep working at it: I've been doing this for at least 9-10 years now, practice (and messing around with stuff) really helps. You'll get better at it the more you do it
![]() Cool, so now I know I'm not talking to myself (lol, you ever get that feeling?) I'll keep updating as I work. I have no update this time because I went to buy bok choy. Now that I have bok choy I can get back to work. --------------------

Aw man, it's getting late already. Soon I'll have to stop again to cook dinner.
More shading. More detail on the hair. Getting started on the rollerskates. ![]() --------------------

I'm thinking it would be lovely if someone would do the dishes for me so I can keep on colouring.
Then when the dishes are done, I'm gonna make a satay stir-fry. I bought broccoli, carrot, bean sprouts, bok choy, mushrooms, chicken, and hokkein noodle. Plus, it will give me an excuse to use my lovely big wok and its giant cooking chopsticks (I love those things, they are so much fun). Somebody please do my dishes for me first?? --------------------

Aaaaaand I think I'm done.
I'm not sure there's much I could do to it any more that will add to the picture. I think i have the shading about right. I could possibly do a bit more work on the hair, but I've done projects where I've spent days on hair so I'm going to avoid getting too much into that. ![]() --------------------

The shadow doesn't even render in Safari, thank goodness. It's never a good idea to use effects like that on body text either: perhaps for a heading, but not for body text.
See, now I just hope the pink background of mine is BRIGHT AND HAPPY AND MAKES YOUR EYES BLEED. Delicious. --------------------

Originally posted by XkeeperTypographically speaking, yes. Although thankfully you make the text big enough that it's not so bad. You get a Get-Out-Of-Typography-Jail-Free card. This time. At least it wasn't Papyrus or Comic Sans. --------------------

Originally posted by Xkeeper There are three things that save it, to be frank: it's large text, it's a very legible sans-serif and you don't write that much. It matches the theme, but I wouldn't want to read an entire blog entry with it or something. Effects (even subtle ones) impact upon the readability of text. They're best used where you need something to stand out. I'm sorry I'm no fun Learning typography will do that to you, I suppose.--------------------

You know what's fun? Applying photography techniques to my drawings.
