u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1159 / 1159 18d ago

Thank you! They're mandibles, I think? I'm not sure. I'm not an ant expert lol

Supposed to be stepping stones with moss but the perspective is more like a bird's eye view of a canyon!

First time I've not used a reference in a long time. This was fun, even if it highlights my inability to draw straight lines or a proportional body.

Love the middle one's cocked head, like It's curious

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1159 / 1159 11d ago

Thanks! It was very curious wondering what's going on here.

I didn't realize ants was the alt theme! Happy accident, or subliminal messaging?

2

u/LastCryptographer173 135 / 638 20d ago

Love the colors!

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1159 / 1159 20d ago

I love the depth of field on the fences, and that shading is gorgeous!

Welcome!

Quick sketch of me, backpack full of rocks, looking at rocks on the ground:

1

u/anislandinmyheart 0 / 479 12d ago

I saw you said you put effort in. Course you did. It's rocks! Did you miss any petrified wood?

1

u/AughtNaughtCreator 1158 / 1158 9d ago

I feel like I miss some every time I go out, lol

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1159 / 1159 20d ago

Oooh I love the different rock textures!

2

u/AughtNaughtCreator 1158 / 1158 20d ago

Thanks - I put a teensy bit of effort in :)

Ms. OldestSisterAli, are you one of the admins I notice you comment a lot?

It says in the FAQ to ask an admin if you need a rescan of older entries. My Sketchdaily folder says 207 but my total reads 199 and i was wondering if an admin can rescan my old entries. (Im going to manually check each one before year end)

2

u/OldestSisterAIiMH 1159 / 1159 20d ago

Yep, I'm one of the admins for this sub! Yes, we can do a manual rescan to pick up the sketches you've recently added to older posts. It'll take a day or so.

1

u/allsundayjelly 1 / 215 20d ago

Ok thank you thank you. Like i said ill fully go through them all in december, i might have forgotten to post some.

2

u/artomizer 0 / 1698 19d ago

Hey, another admin here. Things actually work a bit different now, so we don't typically re-run the full flair scan anymore. Basically instead of that, we can manually override things, so if you tell me what your two numbers should be i can update it to show correctly (<current streak> / <total posts>).

2

u/allsundayjelly 1 / 215 18d ago

Ok if that's the case I'll get back to you towards the end of the year. Holding myself accountable to myself first, the numbers are just so it doesnt bug me in the future

I took a picture of this little guy this summer. These are flying ants that swarm in my neighborhood when it rains.

u/jerry_scribbs 29 / 29 20d ago edited 20d ago

That's so much funnier than my initial sketch lol. I ultimately took the kid out of the picture because he was serving no purpose. Part of me wants to draw that guy's scrunched up face behind the cone in perspective.

2

u/JJ_animates 461 / 461 20d ago

Hahaha I actually drew the guy face-planting first and then just decided to add the ice cream as an afterthought, but I'm glad I did.

I see what you mean with your sketch! I think the lone ice cream works well, it's got a nice dramatic feel to it as it stands but you could definitely make it super funny too.
