Water Monster

Freaky swimming pool

Today’s picture is welcome relief from bad drawing. It is of Link fighting the boss of the Water Temple, Morpha. Morpha is a strange orange blob that controls the water. Link looks quite nice. I drew some sketches of poses to help me out, but he looked oddly Japanese in one of them. I wonder why. Anyway, for flaws, I can see that Link’s neck is too thick, and it’s not really as dramatic as the official art of the exact same situation, but that’s why they hire professionals!

I go in a sort of cycle for picture drawing. I draw a picture, and then if it’s bad, I hate it for the rest of my life, and if it’s somewhere around good, I love it for a couple of hours, and then I look at it again and hate it until a couple years later when I can look back a bit more clearly. This is happening with my most recent art right now, except for one. I wonder if it’ll happen with today’s drawings.

Today I got the drawing bug, so I drew two pictures. The first came when I heard Rachmaninoff’s Prelude in C#- : you know, the one he always hated because it was so popular. The second came as a result of iced tea. Now, I don’t particularly like iced tea; I only know for sure that camomile tea isn’t bad. It was the thought of iced tea. I have new fanart for someone…
