This week was concentrated on non-human anatomy, trying and gaining
skills to look past all clothing and in this case fur to get the anatomy right
and therefore produce an anatomically right drawing.
The first image is of a friend’s turtle as it swam in a tank, to get
this pose a picture was used to bookmark the turtle’s position since it was
constantly moving. The right side of the turtle has more detail than the left
due to the point of view, the rear leg was very tricky to get right but after
many attempts seems to work with the rest of the turtle’s anatomy. (20 minutes)
The image on the left is of a squirrel from the taxidermy museum, it has
been positioned in such a way that it looks like it’s about to jump off its
stand. This was a very hard pose to draw but after spending around 15 minutes
on it the pose has been captured. The drawing was started with basic shapes and
lines to try and get some insight on the animal’s internal structure. This
method along with hundreds of lines to mimic fur seemed to work as it produced
quite a visually appealing drawing.
The final drawing of the butterfly has very subtle details around its
body to give it a three dimensional look. A lot of detail has been put into the
butterfly's wings to give it a light look using transparency on the wings to
show their nearly non-existent weight. (7 minutes)
