I feel like I've spent the last two days staring at legs. Not a wide variety of legs, just the same two legs. They're not even sexy legs- they're Batman's. Not that Batman's legs aren't sexy, they're just not my kind of sexy. Actually, are they sexy? And I'm rambling... Anyway, try as I might I cannot get this particular pair of pins to look right.
The story behind this is that I wanted to actually update my twitter and make it look semi decent. I've got a profile picture that I want up, and the background should be done, except for them damned legs. The problem is, if I keep the legs I've got (knowing full well you'd never be able to see the thing properly on twitter) the image feels very flat and disproportionate. I've got other problems aside from the legs, but the legs are the one thing that's really bugging me. I don't want to rush this either, it's been the first thing that I've wanted to create in a while that I feel I can finish. Maybe it'll even look good, who knows. Right now though, the picture feels flat and horrible, and I don't like it. But it can be fixed, I think.
I'm both dreading and looking forward to the colouring. I'm going to try and digitally colour it, something I am terrible at. Maybe I'll colour the original in too, I'm unsure as the paper's very worn. I think markers would work really well for it. Or inking it, but that would take a lot more practice.
Once the picture's complete I'll post it up here so you can see it in it's full glory, and I'll link my twitter when it's up in case you're interested in my bitesize ramblings, or you're curious to see who I follow online (it's not that interesting really...) If you have any comments I'm always happy to hear, of if you have an opinion on Batman's legs- sexy? Yay or nay? Just leave a comment below.
As always, thanks for reading!
