Yesterday I stumbled across a video of this giant vacuum sucking up attic insulation pads, and it's pretty neat. Figured I'd share it, since we all like this stuff around here xD

Notice how much the hose jumps around, lurches or compresses when slurping up the bigger stuff; this type of movement isn't often captured in pictures or stories. My favorite part is toward the end where one of the pads gets stuck for a few seconds before inevitably being pulled in. So much power! I also like how the hose is gray, because it's the same color as an elephant trunk. Makes it easier to imagine things, lol. Maybe an animal or monster is really on the other end, waiting for the next victim... This video gives me so many ideas.

What do you think? Personally, real-life references always help me understand how to describe or draw things better.
