Mantis

PolythenePam (Jun 17, 2004)

Trying to draw http://www.ifa.hawaii.edu/users/bresolin/images.varie/mantis.big.jpg"
I was desperate for the large canvas size, so I don't care how long it takes me, i'm gonna make this perfect, and worthy of advanced!

I found a praying mantis on the footpath outside school today so i picked it up and carried it all the way to the mall where i catch a bus home from. All my friends rejected me though 'cause they thought it was creepy and they wanted to squash it. Oh well. I named him Archie and let him go in the rose bushes in our front garden.

Comments and suggestions EXTREMELY welcome 'cause i want to make this best I poss. can.

I do sorta intend to do more on this, it's just it's been in my studio for ages and i couldn't draw anything else unless i "finished" something.

LovelyLori (Aug 18, 2004)

ah hell, just leave the BG black and call it done, it's great

LOL, I like this one. Now, what I see here is a Mantis teacher standing in front of a blackboard that a buncha little aphids wrote all over.

What? Is it vintage warplane week and nobody told me?
Very nice! I looks like a pencil sketch of a black and white photo, with just a touch of color added to the sky for nice effect! All the elements in this one tie together so nicely.

Aubrey (Aug 19, 2004)

Mipunai (Aug 19, 2004)

A Pretty Disaster

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Aug 16, 2004)

I dream about tornadoes alot. I can't really call them nightmares because I'm not afraid, I just feel this big rush of adrenaline. I have always been fascinated with them and I think they are awesome looking.

This exudes power. Not surprising considering who did it.

sapphirefairy47 (Aug 18, 2004)

If I could draw as well as you, well, like that is going to happen! But what I mean is people would pay big bucks for your drawings!

LovelyLori (Aug 18, 2004)

yeah, that is pertiful

Aubrey (Aug 19, 2004)

Dat's awesome Cindy. You're great. Love the perspective of it too like if you were just lookin up out of a ditch or a cellar hidin from the tornado and was watchin to see how close it was.

bang bang!

Kasha (Aug 17, 2004)

hehe she's cool lookin', I wanna have a drink with her

JackSprat (Aug 19, 2004)

This is great! I love how it looks like a blend of realism and comic style. Almost like Patrick Nagel goes punk.

Axil62 (edited Aug 19, 2004)

Love it but I think V.7 is better.

"Hello CD listeners. We've come to the point in this album where those listening on cassett or records will have to stand up...or sit down and turn over the record or tape. In fairness to those listeners we'll now take a few seconds before we begin side two........thank you, here's side two."

Aubrey (Aug 19, 2004)

lol Axil. I always hated trying to find a certain song on a whole cassette tape of songs. Then when ya did find the song it was partly over so it was the whole *rewind* *fast forward* game clickin the buttons to find the beginning of the song. *sigh*
At anyyy rate, this is a really cool picture Kasha, I'm pretty sure we've all looked just like that with the hand motion and all at one point in our lives.

Kojirou-San--Nothing says Blue like You

Doodlibop (Aug 2, 2004)

Hidee ya'll!!!!

It's been a while, now hasn't it?

I see everyone has been progressing quite nicely! You guys should be proud of yourselves!

Well, as you can clearly see, this is James/Kojiro(u?) and I'm not done with him yet.

It's nice to be back! Ha-cha-cha!

You're back! YAY! I love your drawings

TiggerTiger (Aug 4, 2004)

That hair is amazing...

Knockoff (Aug 4, 2004)

Wow, yes. I agree, that hair is awesome. So shiney! :D I love the background, blue flames!

Asridaein (Aug 16, 2004)

Wow. This is amazing. I like how you have each sketch, so that it shows the progression yoy went through to get the final drawing. I think that helps the beginners like me see how many steps there are in creating a masterpiece such as your own. Thanks. Very awesome pic.

love how the red stands out. I especially like the beak and claws.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Aug 15, 2004)

When I lived in Southeast Texas I always heard these peck pecking away up in the trees, but when I looked up I could never find them. Very pretty colors, and my favorite part is the bark on the tree.

davincipoppalag (Aug 16, 2004)

I love the red too. I was happy how the tree came out

emmamommalag (Aug 16, 2004)

We've had lots of downy's and hairy's and even flickers but I haven't seen a red-headed woodpecker since childhood. I just love this picture. :)
