SPQR Blues part XCVII: middle

First person to find the Lindsey Davis reference wins... well, you know my track record for getting things to winners in a timely fashion, so... wins... the satisfaction of knowing a Lindsey Davis reference. Whoot?

Try not to step in the mushy stuff...

I'm jealous - whenever I try to draw fingers, they end up looking like bunches of bananas.

I used to draw and paint hands and fingers obsessively when I was around eight or so. So sometimes I get them right now :) Before that, my stick figure drawings had no hands at all. Or feet. So so sad. Fourth grade was a turning point in stick figure evolution.

I think I pay more attention to how my favourite artists draw hands than anything else they draw. Takeshi Obata has lots and lots of hands in Hikaru no Go, come to think of it. I seem to recall spending a lot of time studying Wendy Pini hands, though she has a tendency to leave off a finger :D

Wendy leaving off fingers...

Maybe that's why you sometimes draw hands that resemble those of industrial accident victims ... *giggles madly*

You know I'm kidding, right? I'll never forget that crazy boss and his crazy "critiques" of your and other artists' work. "It looks like her fingers were fused together in a horrible industrial accident." Wha-- ???

Oh, those were the days. Of something.
