Beetsandink - Beets And Ink

"Queer Knowledge"

 The first image is just a mockup, but the construction of the final relied on buckets of hot glue and a single giant branch that broke off of a sycamore tree during an ice storm.  there was enough sap in the twigs that they were pliable, and you can get an object like that to hold its shape if you bind it next to another object, so paper tape was used to pair the twigs.  the thick part of the branch was sliced using a belt saw, that's the name right?

So it's a big deal deciding what skin looks like when converting a fantasy-race character design to color.  What does sun-burn look like on semi-olive skin?  Making it up as we go along.

Foggy cold day :>
