Very good job on the bunny Earnest .. I love it .. we have bunnies in are yard all over the place .. but to get a picture of them is hard ..that is clear enough to post on here to draw.

Siks, fabulous bunny, so soft looking.
Great knife Laurie, you're doing well!
BRB, lovely portrait as always.
Ernest, your rabbit is adorable.
Here's my efforts. I'm afraid I made your daughter look too old and not quite herself on this one Kim. I'll try again if I have a chance this week.
[attachmentid=4034]
The rabbit is sweet. I have them all over my property when the weather warms up a bit and have managed to get a lot of good photos of them.

Dear Kim, can you enlarge the photos? Or make them jpegs? I am unable to get them big enough to work on.

Kim,
this size of pictures is much better. I had the same problem as Judyvan.
BRB,
maybe it is better not to repeat the whole post instead the sentence that is important, it always is irritating for me. especially if you quote the picture too. But maybe I'm wrong.....

Thanks Kim...it looks better on my sketch book ..lousy scanner

I tried the knife. I didn't spend very much time on it and sort of rushed, so there isn't any shading. I might go back and work on it more later

[attachmentid=4078]
Hmm.. I had to really downsize it to upload... doesnt show up to well... oh well

My sketch for the livingroom... I think i did something wrong with the 3 seater...
Rupa
Xenrok
Apr 5 2007, 12:19 AM
Wow that is really good!
One thing I noticed is the whole room seems to be tilting.
The three seater would look better if it was flatter on the ground, but other then the angle it looks good.
Anyway it is still very good

Xen ... for a outline you did a awsome job hun
Vijay ....a room like that is very hard to do with all the angles...I think it looks great ..yes the couch does sink abit but hun you pretty much kept with the lines and trust me ....you are the only one so far to take that challenge ...so good job ! I love the detail you put in the room .
SouthernCross I love the drawing of kellie ..again the angle of her face is a hard angel to get and you got it !

Bruffi,
Just in case you don't know how to add an attachment.
re:posting picture
When you "add reply" at the bottom of the forum, you get your message area. Scroll down and you will see "file attachments", click the browse button. This will bring up your files, open the correct folder, then open your file. Next click "add this attachment", Then click add into post. Scroll down "Preview post" then if all is good "add reply". I hope this will do it for you.

I hope you like it.
[attachmentid=4097]
Not as easy as I first thought.
Xenrok
Apr 6 2007, 05:55 PM
OK, I tried the knife again... it doesn't look that good though, too bulky and I can't shade well with just a mechanical pencil
Oh well, more practice the better I guess
[attachmentid=4099]
Mecharver I like your drawings, they look really good

I don't expect drawing to count for anything towards the challenge for this week, but I just felt the need to redeem myself and make another attempt for Kellie and my sake, if you know what I mean.

Nadinea,
You have fulfilled the first order of the challenge.. to improve.

The weekly challenges are for each of us to challenge ourselves to do something different, to work outside of our comfort zone and most of all to improve on our artwork.
