[Daily Doodle] Meg from Disney's Hercules

[justira]

Daily Doodle: So, uh, things I did not realize when starting this! (1) It is hard to draw in the Hercules style when you've never tried it before. (2) It takes a long time to draw a full figure. (3) It takes an ASS-LONG TIME to draw a full figure in the Hercules style. Man, I had no idea how hard Meg was to get on-model. I tried, but in exchange for trying to make her look a little more Meg-like I had to skimp on cleaning up my awesome sketchy lines, and you can kind of see the line quality degrading as you go down the pic. Those feet must be one of the more embarrassing things I've let people see. But them's the rules! I already broke one today; not breaking any more >(
Well! I tried to challenge myself! And it wasn't a total success (time faaaaiiiillll), but I think it was worth trying.
Time: 35 mins. I am awful and broke a rule. I just. I couldn't let the awful lines and feet go. Augh. I MUST CONCOCT A PUNISHMENT FOR MYSELF

Well, for those of us who can't draw, it's all miraculous what you do.

And yay, Meg!

Hey, I miss seeing your drawings! I'd been watching you improve since I started puttering around FF fandom. Do you think you'll keep at it? You have a great eye for texture! The most recent pic I remember is one of Lulu, where you did this fabulous job differentiating all the different textures, especially the fur. The only things I remember since then were those freaking sweet snow sculptures. Seriously they were awesome >.>

Oh, and thank you, of course =D I loved Hercules and Meg especially. The movie made me froth at the mouth over the historical/mythological/cultural inaccuracies and inconsistencies, but it was a fun movie and I enjoyed it anyways =P
