Circadian Contraptions Day 62

Today I wanted to do something a little more abstract. I started out with a mandelbrot fractel, and by accident copied it into the same work folder that the lips were in. Interested in how these two would mesh together I started messing with pixelation, coloroverlap and repetition. The end result I think is very … Continue reading »

Circadian Contraptions Day 61

I really love how the lips turned out so figured I’d do the same with the eye. I love the effect i managed to get on it, but the iris colors.. not 100% sold on those. Still, it’s today’s contraption.

Circadian Contraptions Day 60

The second month ends with a big kiss. Today was something of a study in the lighting on the lips, and how to convert a pencil drawing into color.

Circadian Contraptions Day 59

The face i showed before is not complete yet. It needs a frame, it needs a setting. And of course hair. So that is what I did today. I made a nice pixie cut hairstyle and a face shape that should house the rest. It might start looking a bit odd when i combine them, … Continue reading »

Circadian Contraptions Day 57

On the way to work today I decided to test my new phone by making a picture of sky lighting up behind the pyramid that is our train station. The effect was so nice that I decided to strengthen it by adding a blur and messing with the strength of the color balance on the … Continue reading »

Circadian Contraptions Day 56

The mouth. After doing the eyes, the ears and the nose, the mouth of course couldn’t stay behind. I think its interesting how many lines the mouth does not actually have. The outer contour is more hinted at than drawn, except for the shadowy corners and bottom part.   And a bit of bonus content … Continue reading »

Circadian Contraptions Day 55

I’ll stick with the face a bit longer, this time I’ve tried my hand at drawing a nose. I’m pretty pleased with most of it, the bridge could use a bit of work, but the “bulbous” part of the nose turned out rather as intended.

Circadian Contraptions Day 54

Faces, if you want to draw them property can be quite a hassle. Not only the eyes, but a realistic nose, mouth and ears are pretty hard as well. The hardest due to the weird shape i think is the ears, so that was my focus for today. I’m going to need to draw a … Continue reading »

Circadian Contraptions Day 53

A little while back I drew an eye. I did so from the top of my head, no example, just what i thought I’d remember about the eye. It came out, well, not quite what I desired (see day 42) and I promised to try it again, this time with a bit of help from … Continue reading »
