Circadian Contraptions Day 41

Circadian Contraption 41
It’s a pony! The base was done through a tutorial, the personalizing was from the top of my head, my own design (so no, dont try to figure out what pony this is 😛 )

Circadian Contraptions day 40

I’ve promised myself to work on hands, and though its not nearly as good as i want it, its loads better than the broken thumb my minion had. More practice, and it might one day be perfect 🙂

Circadian Contraptions Day 39

Today’s sketch is a minion. Not much to say except that i really could use some more practice on drawing hands. I guess i should start working on a tutorial for that somewhere this week

Circadian Contraptions Day 37

The glass I’m happy with so far. The candle looks great i think, but the candleholder needs some reshaping, and the flame still looks like crap. I would also want to see the flame reflected in the glass, which at the moment is all but invisible there.

The scene evolves and slowly gets more body. What also has a good body? A nice red wine. An empty glass is a bit sad, so i decided to fill it up with a nice Bordeaux. The surroundings need a bit more work, the reflections on the glass seem a bit weird by 2 different kinds of wood used and I want some more items to complete the image, most probably involving a candle and some fruit. But i’ll get to that another day.

Circadian Contraptions Day 36 – Of Coffee and Wine

Circadian Contraption 36
I wanted to embellish the setting with the coffee cup a bit more, so i started with adding a wineglass. I’m not happy with it yet. The scaling is wrong, i need to work on the composition, and it barely seems to be picking up the walls i set up around it (it only reflects blackness right now). But it IS a contraption, and it is todays work.

I’m not quite sure what the rules on origami are. My memory tells me something like it has to be folded from a single piece of square paper, without cutting, tearing or gluing. Whether this is an official rule or not I don’t know, but depending on the answer today’s build either is or is not “official” origami. Made from 12 squares of paper, which are folded identically and then fitted together

Circadian Contraptions Day 33

Today was a blast to the past, I used to love origami when I was still only a few feet high. As I’ve had years of experience way back when i decided to start at the back of the book. The squirrel there depicted was slightly above my skill (or at least i have no idea what they meant in part of the explanation), so i took one step back and folded this elephant.

Circadian Contraptions Day 32

The 2nd try at an actual mandala. It is relaxing to draw these, and the end result looks nice i think, regardless of that the lines are not perfect.
