Skull a day photo dump

Skully July

SkullyJuly and Skulladay

So last year I started my creative sprint of #Skulladay in July and it coincided with #skullyjuly but I didn't draw a skull each consecutive day and I think it took me till the end of August before I finished my 30 skulls. Anyway this year I want to do better, I want to complete all 30 skulls in July. This year I have these two to help me :) and a list of materials and stuff I can use to help keep the pieces I create exciting and interesting for those who follow me.

This is a Roe deer skull and I am using some of the supplies from June's Scrawlrbox (which reminds me I need to make another post about that) I am trying to come up with some ideas for the prompt Twisted Reality.

This is day 2, I have no idea how or why it came out so long but after drawing the right side too long instead of binning the drawing off I wanted to see what I could do with my left hand, and apparently its not draw a single straight line lol. Anyway I thought it was fun and I would still post it for my skull a day even if it is pants. 

My new friend

As I have been a bit obsessed with skulls in the last year, one of the things I have wanted is a full sized human skull replica to be able to make my own reference images from. And here she is:

I really love her! perfect for me to get whatever angle I want and not have to rely on the internet. I can shine a lamp on her at different angles for exciting and moody shadows.

Jaw is hinged and the top comes off to have a look inside which is also super interesting and fascinating to learn how everything works. If I was sure that polymer clay wouldn't melt or damage the skull I would attempt to put muscles on and learn about them too.

Pretty kool hey?

Skull-a-Day Creative sprint

For the last 2 weeks I have been working on a Skull-a-day project. Having slightly more success at doing this daily than my Inktober projects. If you follow my Instagram or Facebook then you will have already seen these:

So far I've only missed 4 days, I think I am having more success because I am not limited to one medium, its fun to use anything and everything I have accumulated over many years.
