So, I’ve seen some of the real life body art memes around and thought I’d give it a shot. I used my laptop’s webcam to get the picture of myself, striking a fighting pose just for fun, and because I’m a goober. I kinda cheated and taped the paper over the laptop screen to get the silhouette of my body right, but all the fine details were drawn freely, from shading to contours to added furriness. :D
Obviously I made some exaggerations as far as the head and the fur goes, but it’s a pretty faithful representation of what I look like. A little belly flab from when I was a fatty which is mostly loose skin by now, a hairy belly, a hairy chest, and hairy armpits (I picked the bear as part of my fursona for a reason, after all…) I couldn’t figure out a way to add in my facial hair very well, but I figured the chin scruff and the fuzzy cheeks would suffice. It’s close enough to beard, mustache, soul patch, and mutton chops. That’s right - mutton chops. That’s how it grows in. o.O
I think it turned out pretty well. The body, at least. I’m not so sure about the head. It looks kinda disproportionate in my opinion, and I couldn’t quite get the angle of the turn on the face the way I wanted. I tried redoing it but it didn't look any better, so I scrapped that crap. My deflated moobs might look a little too much like boobs. And that big fur collar representing the chest hair looks a little wonky. I finally got the evil eyes down, though! *Glares menacingly* Don’t f*** with me, punk…
Either way, it was a fun little experiment. What do y’all think?
