Haha... danke :) All isn't lost -- I think I'm going to change her up a little more (tone it down) and use her as a 3D model project to brush up on my Maya skills. 3D portfolio section is severely lacking. :/
I'd love to see some of the pieces you came up with during that course. :D
Thank you :) I think I do too, or maybe a light wash of watercolour in very similar tones.
I don't know -- he's very weird with my artwork. Part of me says he's just so used to it and desensitized, or just incredibly shy. I've done several pieces for him, 2 of which ended up being highly successful publically, but he clams up/shys away from them. It took over a year of bitching to get him to put them up in his apartment... ;) I think I just give up! SO's are usually a wonderful point of inspiration, though. :/
it could be a lot of things...maybe he's envious of your talent? i mean, i know i would be. i don't mean in a bad way, just sorta "i wish i could do stuff like that" i'm kinda envious myself, and i've said that myself when looking at some of the stuff nancy did in her course last spring. i used to be able to draw, but i haven't done anythging in years and i think it'll take a lot of work to get back to where i was. it's something i want to do someday, but not just yet.
That thought never ever occurred to me, but it's a possibility. I'd hate to think it, though. :/
She did some nice stuff, did she? I'd love to see it! The human form is so much fun on so many levels...
I hear ya -- I stopped drawing completely for a good few years and was afraid I'd lost it completely, but you'd be amazed at how quickly it is to pick up again. I get the same types of fear as well, but one of my teachers told me something once: "You have a bunch of bad drawings in you that you need to get out before the good ones come through." ...So every time I make a shitty piece, I just chock it up to -- well, there's another out. ;) Though it is MUCH easier said than done...

it's a bit more poignant this way; it's raw and undistracting.
can't imagine why he's not so into it, unless maybe he would have prefered it if you'd drawn it so they were facing eachother?
