That's wicked! Looks to me like a giant extra-dimensional insect leering out at me from a drug nightmare.

After not drawing anything for about a year, I recently dusted off my sketch pad and was pleased to find I could still remember how to use a pencil. This was the best thing I managed to get down that day:

Tell me what you think of her.

It reminded me of a room because the round part at the bottom reminds me of a floor and the other part is like a round wall but soft like the back of a sofa.

Do you like apophysis animations?

Just a bit of constructive criticism (as constructive as I can be, not too good at this) I think you should work on the anatomy and practice with the positions of features on the face, move the nose and mouth upwards so it is higher to life the face up a bit so it doesn't look too droopy. I think you could have potential if you work more on the anatomy of your characters, there should be plenty of guides on the internet on how to draw proportions of the face and body, I'm still learning now as I am not too good at hands but I'm getting there with practice.

It's always noses that get me. Feet are pretty tough too.

wow!

Noses can be quite simple, but it depends on the style I'd try to offer advice, however, I'm more of the manga style when it comes to drawing, so I couldn't be of much help....

that is an interesting perception. i can see the sofa idea (as like the buttons sewn into them that make deep invaginations in the padding).
in my mind, it is a large uninhabitable planet that is icy cold, and has traces of yellow where the mirth of my internal existence (mantle) breaks through the surface (like the ring of fire on the earth).
the sky is like an impenetrable veil that has some relationship to the outside world that is depicted where the seams (that look vaguely like lightning) let the light of reality shine in a narrow way onto the planets surface.


i did not know what it was so i googled and youtubed it. yes i like it.
it is software that generates random fractals that users can manipulate it seems.

i like to write my own fractal formulas and i write them after a day of imagining them.
i wrote my own program to set the pixels governed by the rules of the fractal formulas that i write.

the animations i do are actually many still frames of fractals that differ slightly, and i string the frames together and play them at a rate of 24 frames per second to produce the motion.

i will download "apophysis" and play with it tomorrow or the next day.
no need to worry about replying as my responses will become more complicated exponentially if you do.

that is a good description, but i have never had a drug nightmare.
it is really an attempt to model the surface of a body of liquids of different viscosities and that are a mixture of hydrophilic and lyophilic characteristics that are vibrated from behind with a number of concommitant resonant frequencies.

anyway, here is a simple one that i did a while ago, and i liken it to the bracelet a planet may offer to another planet it is in love with, however the bracelet is distant and is setting and disappearing below the horizon because the planet that it is being offered to is not interested to take it as yet. but it will rise again in the next morning and cross the sky hoping to be accepted the next day hopefully.

i am too tired to prevent myself from posting words that may be nonsensical.
i will not embed the image because there is a problem with the aspect ratio, so i will just post a link to it for now. i must get to bed because i have to attend a meeting tomorrow "mourning" at ten and people will be upset at my behavior if i am tired.

here is a clip of a recent animation i made if you are interested. i played the music in a separate exercise unrelated to the clip, so it does not end with the end of the clip, so i had to fade it out when the clip ended. i just chose it as the most appropriate accompaniment to the video that i had available.
i recommend that you keep your eyes focused in the exact center of the clip while it is playing.

this is what i mean by a "drill out".
this is very blurry due to the fact that i had to compress it to an extreme degree to get it onto youtube. the original file is 2.3 gigabytes, and youtube will only accept 1 gigabyte.
but even if i compressed it to 1 gigabyte, it would still not be able to be viewed fluently because people can not stream 1 gigabyte in only 60 seconds, so i compressed it to 100 mb in order for it to be viewed without seizing up and spoiling the continuity.

therefore it is 1/23 of the original image quality from the original.

youtube seems very slow tonight, so watch it when you can when the streaming is faster.
