And yet even more Trek art

[tripperfunster]

I had two hours to kill today, while my kids were at Sylvan Leaning Center. They're both a tad behind in their reading skillz, so we thought we'd give them a little boost before school starts. Anyhoo, I reach into my art bag and guess what? NO REFERENCE PICS! WTF? I always have tons, but not today. Then, out of my watercolour pad falls a screenshot from nuTrek, so hey. I draw it.

Not a very inspired pose, but way more fun that reading Women's Home Weekly or whatever dreck they have to read there.

I sketched and inked it there, then watercoloured it at home. Just for shits and giggles, here's what they both looked like.




I'm still not where I want to be, skill-wise, but I had lots of fun with different techniques, like wet on wet *wink*, lifting and using a spray bottle.

Ah Sylvan, bane of my existence.

They're pretty good, actually. Your kids are bright and well behaved. They'll be out of there in no time, and the program is excellent.

Your trek is fantastic. I like the bg colouring actually. It's just neat.

Why do you assume my kids are bright and well behaved? ;)

Actually, when we first went for the assessment, I literally had to drag Harry in, kicking and screaming. So I went to the age old parenting trick, beatings bribery. I promised him a playstation if he finishes the two weeks. Needless to say, his attitude re-adjusted itself quite quickly. (I probably would have eventually bought him one anyway, but don't tell him that)

As for the artz, thanks! I like the bg too. It seems very ... ninth circle of hell-ish. You know, the one you go to for buttsexing too much.

Haahahahha, look, all I know is that the kids who were always ill behaved had parents who were...less involved? in their kid's lives, and that ain't you.

In Harry's defense, that assessment is a bear. I gave a lot of them, and they take for like, EVER.

Well if anyone deserves to go to hell for too much buttsexing, it would be James Tiberius Kirk.
