That market illustration is fantastic. Is that like an old crone holding out a rat for sale?!?

O thank you sir! Not sure what character you're referring to, a couple of them are doing number signs with their fingers, one is smoking a pipe. But i'm VERY bad at drawing fingers, and pipes too.

These are well done. Nice perspective on that last shot. Thanks for sharing.

LOL! It looks like someone holding out a dead rat or possibly a fish from the left side of the frame, while the figure walking down the alley is shying away from it.

Ah yes... the rat needs a tail and some feet, but I can see that. haha. A funny interpretation, Diamond.

The scene really is well done and your fingers and pipe are not as bad as you think they are, The Lazy One.

Lazy, these are absolutely stunning!!! I especially love the one with the temple(?) built into the hill side. I know it wasn't part of the challenge, but I would LOVE to see what these would look like with some coloring to them!

[The Lazy One]

Thank you everyone!
I definitely' can't unsee the rat now!

Manwhile: Number 15 - Mysterious! Nothing new in this one, just consolidating my techniques with stone buildings i guess.



As for the coloring, i'd be very curious too! Maybe in November?

Still going strong. I love that steep hillside/cave one and the small details in your market are lovely. Very nice castle as well, almost makes me wanna practice drawing, maybe I can work my way up to a shed

Wow, you definitely do not deserve your pseudonym (or I'm the king of the lazy ones) !
Great work here, very inspiring.

Thank you Tilt! Well, i doubt that anyone here is much less proficient than me in drawing. It's just a matter of practice really, and experimenting styles. And I've got a long way ahead.

Thank you!

well, i'm lazy as i really try to find the quickest solutions to get what i want. A bit of painful cross-hatching can be quicker than other means, for sure.


ANYWAYS: here's today pick: "FAT"
Again, experimenting different views and concepts. A bit far from the cartographic approach, this time.

Todays map! well, again, not a map today. But a badass tree, i'm very happy of how it turned out!

C&C welcome, this hatching techniques will certainly be useful in the future too!
