I put my day off to good use, so here is today’s drawing for Reverb10 prompt #6, “Make.”
What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? (Author: Gretchen Rubin)
The last thing I really put any time in to making was the proton pack for my Ghostbuster costume, for Halloween ’08. It was quite the ordeal. I drew this while getting my oil changed, so I was unable to look at the photo below–but that’s fine. I thought it would be fun to try and draw from memory.
While it was a lot of blood, sweat and tears, it was a fun project. I enjoy doing crafty things like that–maybe because it is something that doesn’t require me to sit in front of a computer (not unlike this drawing project).
