Be my muse!

[sqbr]

So, I need to draw more for practice, and I am also stuck at work without much to do and thus very tempted to surf the internet (which gives me headaches and thus cuts down on productivity, I say trying to spin this as somehow not anti-productivity) I am feeling uninspired, though.

So! Give me ideas for things to draw, and I will draw at least the first two. One per person. I may interpret things very loosley, the quality will almost certainly be REALLY low, and if I object to the idea I'll ignore it all together.

Will post any results.

Now... go!

EDIT: Now..stop! That filled in the afternoon nicely :)

The results:

• Tommo, and a tap-dancing cassowary
  
• Members of my family wearing an assortment of kitchen implements on their heads, and what happens when a dragon goes to sleep on a hoard of golden foil-covered chocolate coins
  
• ducks ducks ducks duck
  
• A horse pretending to be a hippogryph in order not to be eaten by gryphons
  
• An octopus carrying a weapon in every hand (including spear, maul, katana, wakazashi)
  
• a ninja tupperware party

Draw me! I'm sitting just across the room from you :)

[alias_sqbr]

Done!

Tap-dancing cassowary.

*mutters about having to look up reference pics*

Wait, don't YOU owe ME a picture?

[penchaft.livejournal.com]

Maybe!

[alias_sqbr]

Huh. And here I am, having already completed my picture for you! *feels used*

[penchaft.livejournal.com]

I have a bad memory. =( What should I do for you, then?

[alias_sqbr]

Whatever you like! The meme was pretty vague, and lets face it the art I made you wasn't my best work :) (Our website is down, btw, so no images)

Members of your family wearing an assortment of kitchen implements on their heads.

[alias_sqbr]

Done!

what happens when a dragon goes to sleep on a hoard of golden foil-covered chocolate coins?

[alias_sqbr]

Done! (In a somewhat lazy way)

ducks ducks ducks duck

[alias_sqbr]

Sorry, all I could manage was duck duck duck :)

EDIT: Counting is clearly too hard maths for me. Still, duck duck duck duck!

A horse pretending to be a hippogryph in order not to be eaten by gryphons.

"No really, I'm your nephew!"

[alias_sqbr]

Done! That was fun :)

A ninja tupperware party

[alias_sqbr]

Done!

Now I have to make up my own ideas :)

[nico-wolfwood.livejournal.com]

Damn! I didn't see this in time and I've had a request in the back of my mind for ages - I'll wait till you're next in need of inspiration :P

Can't wait to see the results!

[alias_sqbr]

Hey, that didn't stop anyone else, feel free to say it: I'm saving the other replies on the assumption that I may, at some point, be bored at work again :)

[nico-wolfwood.livejournal.com]

Really? Cool! Then - An octopus carrying a weapon in every hand (spear, maul, katana, wakazashi are the only ones I remember). It was EE's D&D character in his last campaign.

[alias_sqbr]

Ok, have started drawing, any other weapons you want included? Otherwise I'll just do ones I think look cool, like a shuriken or flail :)

[nico-wolfwood.livejournal.com]

Nah, whatever you think will look best will be cool - your suggestions (particularly the shuriken) sound good to me! In case you need some background: The octopus is a polymorphed version of his samurai character (more limbs = more weapons = more attacks) so there should probably be more Asian weapons than Western weapons. On the other hand mauls are not exactly East Asian if I remember correctly...

[alias_sqbr]

Done! Looking through the results to "japanese weapon" was fun :)
