ART: four original, two mythology and one fanart
Title: Traveller
Characters: Lily from [info]epistolatory (belongs to Julie [info]riddled)
Rating: G
Medium: Ink, watercolour
Notes: I started this at the beginning of the month when Julie was over, but then dawdled about finishing it since I'm still harbouring delusions about being able to colour stuff digitally. I need a tablet! This is my feeble attempt at steampunk, btw.




Title: Valerie & Jack
Rating: G
Medium: Pencil, photoshop
Notes: Valerie & Jack are two trapeze artists, from my brainchild Tricks. I've just started re-reading it for the first time since the insanity of NaNoWriMo, and am seriously considering editing this one -- I just have to obsessively create actual backstories for all of the characters first.






Title: Mimi
Rating: G
Medium: Coloured pencil
Notes: Also from Tricks; Mimi runs the circus. The anatomy is crazy off here, this is just me trying to amuse myself while working at a daycare. I've drawn more in the last five days than for the past few months now, not all of it great, but it's something!




Title: Yggdrasil
Rating: G
Medium: Crayons
Notes: Working at a Steiner daycare has brought back all of my grade five Norse mythology classes. This is the world tree, or at least the bits of it that my hazy memory could recall. I can spoil the fourth-graders for what they'll learn next year and insert a bunch of made-up facts at the same time, all while distracting them from the fact that they've been watching somebody draw for the last two hours!




Title: Odin
Rating: G
Medium: Ballpoint pen
Notes: Same as above, except this is the "god boss" as I eloquently put it to the kids.




Title: Batman & Joker
Rating: G
Medium: Crayons, ballpoint pen for contour (or whatever it's called)
Notes: Pretty self-explanatory. Yes, I just read Arkham Asylum and have fallen even more deeply in love with Dave McKean than before, which shouldn't really be possible. These are actually pretty teeny, and more an exercise in technique than actual art.

I'm glad you've been drawing so much! The first one is lovely & the mythology ones are really interesting.

Thank you! In addition to these there are about a gazillion drawings of princesses, but they've all been given away. XD

Hah, Odin really looks like Geir. :D

Nice drawings! You're inspiring me. How does this challenge thingie work? I also wanna! I don't have a scanner, but I could take pictures of drawings using my EOS 400d. (:

It was just Julie & I agreeing to do it, so you can go ahead and join us this week! We're doing Monday (i.e. today) till Monday, with five pieces again (I think), that have to at least be somewhat finished. To be posted by midnight in a week!

You don't have an specific theme? I kinda want a theme. My problem with drawing etc. nowadays is that I have no idea what to draw :P

Not really, I think we felt ambitious enough just trying to crank out five drawings of anything. :> But I've been drawing a couple mythology-related drawings, Greek and Norse etc, so run with that if you want?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm. I might. Mythology is one of the things I'm no good at, though. I mean, ...fact-wise. I'll just google it, then. Until next Saturday, then? (:

We went until this past Monday, but then I think we were both kinda thrown off-schedule. Oops?

I can't brain today, I have the dumb.
So... You originally had a deadline until Saturday, but waited until Monday? Hm.

I'm unsure of how "sketchy" my drawings may look like. I don't have nifty colours, I don't do ..øh... tusjing (that word looks REALLY chinese), and I don't have photoshop or anything to fix it digitally. And I have kind of "hairy" ...strek-s, but I try to outline the most important parts. I really suck at anatomy, though, and I can't do shadow if you gave me a million kroner, so. I don't know if I am qualified enough for your thingie :O

The first challenge we did Saturday to Saturday, and then this challenge we did from Monday to Monday (two days ago).

Nonsense, sketches count too! The only reason I have so much finished stuff is because of my job, honestly. :)
