May. 1st, 2009 12:25 amAaand, yup, I lost the contest. *le sigh* Oh well, the winning entry was awesome and better designed than mine, anyway. ^^ I need someone who knows something about design and Photoshop to do something cool with my drawings for next time. Anyway, I got 106 votes, so that's pretty awesome! (winner got 132). Still feeling pretty fuzzy and warm that so many people voted for me...
Also, the recent BriWi post of awesome at RBR (namely, this picture) has inspired me too to draw some noir/1920s-40s pundits... I may be third in the comm to do so, but I'm still enjoying it. ^^ Got Anderson mostly finished, and I think he's turned out well. Sketched him on paper then (since I don't have access to a scanner) I took a photo of it and transferred it to my computer. Then got to work tracing and outlining and finishing it on my computer... halfway through realized his head was too big, likely creepily so, and had to re-draw parts of it and his body... looks better now. Anyway, will post when done. I finished outlining him, now am struggling with the various items on his desk (phone, typewriter...). I kinda suck at drawing this sort of thing. o.o And while with the phone I've got a good reference photo off of Google Images, with the typewriter I'm just using the BriWi picture above as a reference (did a search on Google, but they're all from the front or side, not the back...). Gonna have to give up on making it particularly correct looking. ^^;
And in other, you know, real life news... Cousin arrived today safe and sound (22 hour flight, harsh!) and we met up for lunch and then hung out all afternoon and had dinner. So nice to see someone familiar and hang out with her. :) *hugs* Seeing her tomorrow, hopefully she's going to get a place to live in St. Kilda through the organization I used...
And now, if I can stay awake.. LOST!!! 100th ep! OMG so excited! And I'm kind of half-asleep and it's 12:30am, but but.. wanna watch! ^^;
