Streak Club is a place for hosting and participating in creative streaks.
Realized that one big mistake I made yesterday was rotating the plane marking the side of the head, rather than just changing it's angle against the y-axis (technically, that's also a rotation. But whatever.) so I tried again with the face pointing more and more to the right. And then I flipped over the paper, and started it all over. This time with more circle and ellipse guides and rulers. Still struggling a bit with the looking down faces this way, but it's sooo much better now.
Continuing the creepy tower. Also, it turns out that the tool I was wondering about last week is an ink pen, so I bought some ink to try it out. I really like the result. But it handles quite differently to modern pens or pencils.
Bought myself another piece of drawing equipment from the 70ies. Takes some practice for the really small and really big radii. But what I am somewhat confused about, is that there's two of this one tool, that I assume is used to hold the compass lead as as a pencil. But they're slightly different lengths. And I just can't figure out why...
