Description

I'm going to move this to my scraps once I finish, but this is my workstation guys. Haha. And... That picture will be the death of me... I'm already going crazy and I'm not even done the background yet... Or close... That yellow stuff is all masking fluid, which smells like dead monkey butt by the way.

"OH. I WANT TO MAKE A WATERCOLOR WITH HEAVY USE OF PATTERNS AND TEXTURES. WHY? BECAUSE I'M A MASOCHISTIC MORON, THAT'S WHY. :I"

...Yeah.

...Is it still a triptych when it's assembled like this? I got sick of rectangles... So you get a heaxagon instead. I was trying to make it so that each frame could stand on it's own, composition wise... I don't know if I pulled it off though. I guess I'll see. I feel like I've done an okay job at that eye-leading business so far though.

I've been wanting to do a multi-panel piece of a naked lady for a while now... But I couldn't find my paper. My only regret is that I didn't have a naked lady to pose for me. Haha. So you get my brain's warped sense of anatomy instead. It'd end up heavily stylized either way though, so I guess it doesn't matter too too much. :P

(I actually want to do one twice this size but that'll have to wait. :I)

...I'll stop blabbing now. (>_>)

EDIT: WOAHWHATSTHIS? PROGRESS? ITHINKSO. Not a whole lot, but, you know. Haha. You can make fun of the lousy proportions later, I'm not used to working this big. Besides, I wanted it stylized anyway so there.:P

And yes, I know the foot is awkwardly cut off. I'm actually going to paste a foot on top of that so it sticks off of the edge of the frame. Why? BECAUSE I CAN. deal with it. :I

EDIT AGAIN:

WOAH. TWO UPDATES IN ONE DAY? ASHER STOP PESTERING US WITH THIS ALREADY.

:P

Yes, that is a tissue box with packaging peanuts in it. I'm not sure why. :P

EDIT AGAIN:

YEAH GUYS I'M STILL WORKING ON THIS.

I may or may not have completely destroyed it, you decide. :]

It's not done yet though. It needs yellow. Lots of yellow. I'm gonna need a really big brush, or a sponge. I'll figure it out. When I do the yellow wash, the red is gonna run like a fugitive. It'll be awesome. Certain colors stay put once they've dried on the paper, others you can lift and manipulate to your hearts content. This red is one of them, I'm going to use this to my advantage.

And then once the yellow/runny red layer has dried. I'm gonna go over the Nervous System in the same red again. Well, Nervous system was what I was going for here. I realize everyone is gonna think "Circulatory system" because of the red. But I was thinking Nervous system while painting. Either way it's not anatomically correct... So it is whatever you think it is. :)

I'm also going to dab at the black a little because watercolors do show up on top of black believe it or not. I want to clean that up. Then I'm going to see about mounting it on something.

It feels weird to be telling you my plans for this picture before I execute them... It's like spoilers
