YW.

Another talent I picked up from working Ren Faires. I always had raw talent (it's still raw), then I got very friendly with an artist/vendor that used to sell fantasy art at faires all over the east coast. I picked up some technique regarding perspective and shading from him.  



I still suck because I never followed thru or took it seriously.

 Stop being modest!  Your drawing is awesome!

Thank you but I'm not being modest. My talent is very minor compared to the stuff I've seen others do. In fact your shading technique and figure work is better than mine.

I like it Renee, very nice

Yeah well your work is pretty damn good as well. That squirrel was very life like. Did you draw it from a picture of from memory? Because if it was from memory, it's exceptional.

I think you are well on your way.  :)

 ac_biggrin   my sister thinks it's funny.  I send her pictures from the slot series :)  (doodles and things - I was doing flowers and different patterns for a while)

They are good, asal. I've always been a little envious of people who can work in pen without screwing up so badly that the drawing can't be salvaged. And I think they are even better given that you do them live.



Good thing OLD people don't move too much.  ac_biggrin



BTW, it's not a dragon; it's my mother-in-law.

Its hard for me to draw from memory, I have to SEE what im drawing. I can almost draw anything but a damn horse, just dont look right to me.

Not fully happy with the perspective but it's passable.

Come on you slackers...Surely we're not the only ones with great photographs of places you live, been to, experienced or just flew past!!!



Post your damn PICS!!!

Here it is folks, my rendition of our very own SPECTRE. At least this is how I see his forum persona; I RL I'm sure he's a wonderful person.



Hope you like it.
