So I had won tickets to The Lion King (the live musical) in a raffle on Friday, and I went to see it with Mike yesterday. It was pretty awesome, 'nough said about that. Before the show I had been working on this:
It's one of the First Dragons important to my personal stories and lore. It's ballpoint pen over an initially un-detailed sketch. The little cut off scribbles are part of a crude size comparison chart (by the way I settled on them being about 20 feet tall). For those of you who didn't know, ballpoint pen is one of my favorite mediums to work with. Especially really cheap ballpoint pens. They're like permanent pencils. Anyway, this is the first time in a while that I have worked on an intricate scale pattern. It's a sketch, but I'm fairly happy with this.
In other news:
For my upcoming birthday I'm asking for a bearded dragon. I've owned one before, but couldn't bring him with me. He's doing well at my parents' house, and now belongs to my sister. I've wanted one of my own again, and now seems like a good time. To save money, and to give myself something to do, I would like to build an enclosure. It should be large enough to live in for life. If anyone has any tips or suggestions, I would like to hear them!
