Washington right now is very nice, in the 50s at night ( a bit to cold for me ) and in the 70s during the day, I am not complaining. I have not seen much of this town yet, still to much to do in the house. Hope all is well with all of you :)

If it was just a touch darker it would look like that girl from The Ring. You made it quite creepy though, especially with the open mouth.

kokumi009 (Jul 11, 2007)

it's scary but the soft gray colors takes a bit of that away
the teeth and nose are well-drawn i should say :D
nicely done for a 40-minute work

gizemko3 (Jul 12, 2007)

soft and ghostly... like the way you did the mouth

Wraith (Jul 14, 2007)

Very cool stuff.. This is a very educational drawing for me. When I first started to see this get drawn, I was thinking "What in the world is he doing? That does not look like a mouth. That does not look like a nose." Then I saw the drawing get touched up towards end. WOW! So this is how you artists draw!

I really like the perspective and the hair..but I noticed the the left eye (our right) is a little far up or the right eye is too far down >_>. Otherwise, this is awesome! :D

Childlike_Vampire (Jul 12, 2007)

Yay pretty red hair and beautiful face and boobies and swords. Really great drawing, has lots of motion, and I love the colors.

Wraith (Jul 15, 2007)

WOW! I really love the hair! This drawing would look awsome as a poster in my room! Great stuff IKS!

Sweetcell (Jul 16, 2007)

Long time commenting. I love everything about this, to the deep reds in the bg, dress and hair (my God that hair, so amazing) to the skin tones and the blade. Even the sketchy lines work. And good job on the perspective. I agree with Mocha but I think it's more her right eye needs to be raised, not her left lowered but it's really minor in comparison to the rest of the piece. Welcome and please stick around and do more.

A Different Time

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jul 7, 2007)

We were born to mothers who smoked and drank
Our cribs were covered in lead-based paint
No childproof lids
No seatbelts in cars
Rode bikes with no helmets
and still here we are
Still here we are

We got daddy's belt when we misbehaved
Had three TV channels you got up to change
No video games and no satellite
All we had were friends and they were outside
Playing outside

It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world

School always started the same everyday
the pledge of allegiance, then someone would pray
not every kid made the team when they tried
We got disappointed but that was all right
We turned out all right

It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world

No bottled water
We drank from a garden hose
And every Sunday,
All the stores were closed.

It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world

It was a different life
When we were boys and girls
Not just a different time
It was a different world

Yes, the lightning bugs die in the jars, but not usually till morning. (gotta poke holes in the lid, of course). You probably don't see them there because they like warm arid climates. Usually it's just too dry here for them.

(my brother Kevin loved playing Monopoly so much that he made up new rules to make it last longer... like instead of paying the bank, you put your money on free parking and if you landed there you got the pile hah) Eventually Clint and I would say, OK, that's it... no more... game OVER, anyway. :)

My feet are still that tough, I never wear shoes outside (at home or at the beach or on the lake). My nieces and nephew still enjoy playing outside more than doing anything else and I'm so thankful they are growing up the way they are... with the ranches and the pecan orchard and the plum thickets. It made my heart feel so light to watch them weave their way into the wild plum thicket (we're talking places only rabbits can go lol),[they managed to talk me into squeezing in, but I'm not sure how I did it] and come out with their shirts rolled up to their waist full of plums, grinning from ear to ear. The plums are bright crimson colored, and are little and sour, and they pop them in their mouths and see how far they can spit the seeds.

I wouldn't mind if you took up all the space in the world here with your memories, I like hearing about them. :)

Quote DBA: "Wraith: It's never a good idea to drink from a downflowing stream, creek, river, etc.... even if otherwise clean, if there's a dead animal upstream in the water, you could get VERY sick. If you know the mouth of it, and have explored it recently, it should be ok."

We live near the mountain Peaks. About a 40 min drive away. So it's mostly mountain fresh water. Or was at that time. The water was so crystal clear and refreshing, it was actually better tasting than the well water we had. It was a simpler time where man was one with the earth. For me anyways. When this river used to flow alot, we all used to get our tire tubes and float down stream to the next lil village. Nowadays we have construction almost everywhere that I can think of. And I hate ORANGE barrels! Everytime I see an Orange Barrel I want to get out of my truck and proceed to bash it and kick it. Orange Barrels are polluting my creativity! Driving me crazy. Seriously. Plus, the river I once knew, is now just a sorry little stream that will probably get your shoes a little damp. Too many people moving into my home town, too many businesses ( Casinos ), Trees getting sick probably because of the Local Lab Experiments of Los Alamos. Just everything is going down hill.

I remember back then, spring time actually had flowers blooming, Butterflies, all that spring time cheer. Now all we get is Moths, Stinks bugs, WEEDS! And this last spring was very very cold!

I know the type of area you're talking about... animals still fall to their death upstream in places like that, and if they are diseased, you can still get very sick.
Go out and sprinkle seeds of flowers that butterflies like. Make it happen. If you don't know the kind of wildflowers butterflies favor that grow well in your area, memo me with with the area you are in exactly and I'll tell you how to do it. Hey, Ladybird Johnson died this week. :( I think she was 94.

I'm not sure what the deal is with the orange barrels, but if it isn't private property and nobody's looking, get a sledge hammer and bash away if it makes you feel better. :D

Wraith (Jul 22, 2007)

Hehehhe.. Thanks DBA. But I think I can do without Butterflies. I was just making a point how things are getting worse. Although I do live next to I-25. So it would be kinda cool to see a cloud of butterflies near it. :D

Sweetcell (Jul 10, 2007)

Well I'm surprised by the lack of commetns. This is your best one yet, and you made that helmet/mask look mettalic and shiny.

Wraith (Jul 15, 2007)

Too many great drawings slip past me. That is why it took me so long to post comment. Cool drawing Taco! It is very different from your usual.

I saw that "TaCO" drew himself (or so I think it's him), so I thought I'd give it a go. This didn't turn out too well but it sort of looks like me. I'm not nearly this scary looking though. My head is pretty hairy right now, this is the longest my hairs ever been. :P

There we go. Smexy. Though you do have a small upper head. :D

TaCO (edited Jul 6, 2007)

Looks like you.

I looked like that a few years back.
I had the same hair and facial hair.
When I cut It short and shaved no one recognized me.

Wraith (Aug 2, 2007)

LoL @ TaCO! Cool self portrait Kloxboy. When I get better some day, I will post a real self portrait of me. Right now I have a somewhat simular self portrait drawn. But it's not quite me.
