@Malrex: Schedule is not looking good for me between now and a Dec. 15th work deadline.
No more sketching legs, demon heads, or he-man action poses for me until then---let alone polishing up the adventure-text proper.
I'm hung up on "done right" or "not at all"---it's just the way I was made. Email me if you want to discuss other options.
Very sorry, and good luck.
As a poor-man's consolation, here's a sketch of a river-spirit from a home campaign side-adventure . I
posted the grotto map in another thread---having started fleshing it out when our party was nearing Her lair and also thought about submitting it to one of DP
's Adventure Contests (last January's?). Work happened then too. This drawing began last night as doodle from my desk after working quite late---started out as a dude slumped in a chair with his legs dandling (in the margin of my graph paper pad filled with trigonometry). Why it became
this then is anyone's guess.
What's so addicting is a new-found freedom to draw figures from more interesting angles. I never felt I could manage that before binge-watching those Proko.com video lessons and following the skeletal construction process. (Your call if I'm getting it closer to physically-correct now.)
More fun to post it than just tuck in my campaign-book or pitch it in the trash. (GIMP you are my frenemy!). I sincerely hope it doesn't offend anyone (ladies included). Honestly, when you are trying to learn anatomy to draw from imagination, textiles are at a whole other level.
Let me know if it's too
risque and I'll gladly delete it.
No photo references were harmed in the making of this smudery....and hopefully my wife will forgive that I just may inadvertently be "borrowing" her as my mental model due to many many years of devoted study. She remains my Platonic ideal for the feminine form.
