Below is an early draft of an essay on the United Nations. The final draft will have a lot of works cited. This picture was drawn a long time ago. I think it was February of last year when I was writing the end to JF. I started out with the shape of a weasel and then made it stand up belly exposed. Then I drew a bunch of words around it. Not very interesting, is it? Well, what else can I say? You don't need a real-life model to make a good drawing. I've only seen a real-life picture of a weasel a few times and this is the product. Just think about what the weasel does rather than what the weasel looks like. The weasel runs along the ground, belly hugging the ground, really. It is very acrobatic, though, being able to capture prey much larger than itself.
Monday morning rolls along and I still have no job. I'm going to look for a job right after this short rant. This pic I drew that is so-so. It shows how amateur I am at drawing. I will list the ways that I lack in drawing:
- Characters do not look like real people. Read more »
So, we have another Making Of JF. The computer lab that I'm working in is very close to empty. How nice. I can work on a very contraversial and erotic piece and not get any flak. ^_^ Okay, maybe it's not all that erotic, but it certainly is a woman type anime character. And anime is always rated 'NR-Mature', so it must be pr0n, right? Right. I drew this a long, long time ago. I think it was either one or two years ago. You see how the hair is not very good. This was drawn before I understood how to draw the back side of hair. Hehehe. A bit of history, I drew it on top of a mountain, Mount Si near Seattle, Washington, USA. It's a one day hike (8 hours there and back, I think) and it's very popular. The trails are maintained by a very committed group of hikers. A few guys in my dorm house decided to hike it. I brought along my pad and pencil and drew this. When we got to the very top, it was snowing, a bit windy, and it was a great view. Although it doesn't show it, there was a 360 panorama and it was pretty sweet. No city in the distance, no freeways that I remember. We cooked something or another and ate a feast. I ate a bunch of ramen, I remember that my friends ate a whole pound of cheese or something like that. Hilarious. "Good times" is the phrase my roommate used for nearly everything good or bad and it really characterized our trip and really our whole year of fun together. We played ultimate frisbee, Counter-Strike, Black and White, and Diablo 2. That was part of the reason that that year was the most fun year of my life. But also because I started AltSci3D Manga Director.
Nothing really to say today. This is what I drew to go with yesterday's essay. This is a UN boot on a peace symbol. There are UN boots in real life. There are peace signs in real life. So... I can't really think of anything else. I'm watching hackers. I'm listening to it right now.
