Angry_Gumball Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) Ok, mid-term projects are springing about and this is one of the only mid-terms I'm actually enjoying so far. We have to do a stipple drawing of either a hairless animal or a landscape/scene. So what do I choose? I will keep you guys updated as I carry on with the project, which is approx 3 weeks. Let's see if anyone can guess what coaster it is... Picture 1 of the Mid-term drawing Edited November 2, 2005 by Angry_Gumball
FlyingScooter Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 Nice job, Angry! You are very talented! i can't guess it yet.
SLUSHIE Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 Riddler's Revenge. Nice job so far, looks like it's going to take a while.
Angry_Gumball Posted October 26, 2005 Author Posted October 26, 2005 Nope, not RR but it is a B&M Standup. One hint: if you have Dave Bennett's book, Roller Coaster, you'll definitely see it. I did happen to throw the art instructor in through a loop though (No pun intended). She said that the trains would be rather difficult in the photo yet at the end of class she was amazed at how it came out. I did happen to eliminate the lift hill and the first loop due to time and dificulty. I'll keep you posted as I have the class on Tuesdays and Thursdays and possible weekend homework/updates. EDIT: Here's a not-to-close up of the train (as seen in my avatar). Too close makes it look like a bunch of random dots.
Real Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Its gotta be Mantis. Why? Theres a dive loop in the back. The only stand ups with Dive Loops are Mantis, RRv and Chang. However, Chang runs with 7 cars per train and if Im counting right, that one has 8 which would make it mantis. Plus I believe I have that book. lol.
SLUSHIE Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 I have that book too. I knew it was either Mantis or Riddler' Revenge. What made me thing that it was Riddlers is the dark section on the from of the train. Riddler's is black, just like it is in your drawing. I know your drawing isn't color or anything so you really couldn't have done it any other way, thats just the first thing i thought.
Angry_Gumball Posted October 26, 2005 Author Posted October 26, 2005 Ok...now I'm angry. I set my sketch book down a few minutes ago and somehow, some sause was kinda splattered on the table. It is now on my drawing. Any tips on removing spaghetti sause before I have to restart the drawing again?
DATman Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 no, but you could draw this! I swear this would be such an amazing drawing
FlyingScooter Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 ^^Angry: Have you tried bleach? My ex-wife, who is one of the best artists I've ever seen did that a few times and bleach always seemed to work for her. What kind of paper is it on? Newsprint sometimes cleans up.
Angry_Gumball Posted October 27, 2005 Author Posted October 27, 2005 Well, I did manage to get 98% of the sauce out using my eraserstik thing, (a pencil looking thing with rough sandy rubber instead of lead with a brush on the other end). Maybe I can crop that area out and use a smaller matte board to go around the drawing. Anyway, expect an update tomorrow around noon (for us californians)
Angry_Gumball Posted October 27, 2005 Author Posted October 27, 2005 As promised, here's an update...it's coming along real nice. Enjoy! An empty standup train flying through it's course. Overviewage

Kroger8 Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 Awesome drawing!!!! Thats amazing! I have that book too!
