Link! Skyward Sword

Death from above!

I've been playing Skyward Sword over the last few weeks. The game is like visual candy, there's a lot of neat textures and patterns throughout. I could walk around Faron Woods and stare at the ancient trees or the symbols on the temple walls for a long time while my heart meter drops to 0. Also, fighting like a crazed monkey seems to work out better than pretending to be a calculating samurai.

Troll Head Portrait!

So over the past few weeks I've been drawing heads for this 1,000 head challenge as a means to help improve my overall drawing. So after some absence I wanted to get back into with a head portrait (sort of) of my lvl 59 troll warrior in WoW at the end of his quests in Silithus. Trolls generally have very large volumetric nose, shallow eye pockets, and a really rounded forehead. Playing with colors and large strokes makes it easier to see forms at times. In any case, Merry Christmas to all and Happy New Years!
