Description


I finally got back my picture yesterday, but I didn't have time to take a picture because I didn't get home until 8-ish PM, and I was exhausted.

This is the second to last drawing project that I drew for my Drawing/Design project (I got an 'A' on it ), and I worked on it simultaneously with my Final project (the Interpretive Dancing picture. I don't have any more WIP pictures for that, but I can post the final soon). This drawing is mostly made up of stipple, and a few lines, and I spent more time on this picture because I'm a video game nerd, although I haven't played video games in a while because I don't own any of the newest video game consoles. I tend to go for the retro stuff (like LoZ games on the GameCube and my old PokΓ©mon games), but even so, I haven't played THOSE games in a while.

But, again, I can't stress enough how much I hate drawing humans. I never get them right. I even messed up Link's hat because I didn't notice it in the original picture because I printed it in black and white so that the shading would show up a little bit better, and the hat sort of blended in with the rest of the picture. I didn't noticed that I made a mistake until after-the-fact when my friend pointed it out. I'm also disappointed in the shading of their faces. Zelda looks like a man and Link looks stupid. And the 'A' in 'Zelda' came out a little bit too dark. Other than their faces and shading, I'm happy with how everything else turned out.

I'm just going to draw this over again, in color. I went to Staples earlier with my mom and she let me buy some color sharpies. This is going to be my xmas present for my friend (although, I'm going to keep the original and I'm going to make him a nice photocopy at Kinko's or something)

Good idea! I don't even think I know what stippling would look like in color

Love the stippling effect! I remember my art teacher tried to make us do this last year, and everyone hated it. You pulled this off quite well!

Yup. Everyone in my class hated stippling also. I think I was an anomaly because I absolutely loved stippling and hated other styles of shading
