Week 5

[...So that was a mess. All of it was a mess, and things don't look to be improving any time soon. With tensions at an all-time high and conditions worsened, it seems pretty safe to say that this whole week promises a great deal of foreboding atmosphere.

But, hey, things aren't entirely bad. Just as Randall promised, you're now able to leave the Manor! 

Just don't stay out there for too long. There's still a lot of you, and you just can't afford to lose numbers.

24 guests remain]


[SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY]

[Ah. Hm. Should've explained what he was doing better. It's kind of autopilot to him at this point, so he totally didn't think to explain what the guidelines were for.]

Shoot, maybe I should've told you to start with a sketch and then color it.

...oh.

[Well it's a good thing he has only used a small part of the canvas. Rémy goes for a pencil and does the shaky circle again, with the guidelines]

This art thing is more complicated than I thought.

Sorry, that's on me - I'm not really an art teacher. See, the lines that go across are to show you where the parts of the face are.

[He points at his drawing and shows how he set the eyes on either side of the line and the nose in the center.]

See? Eyes on either side and nose kind of in the center.

Right, I see.

[Hm...well maybe that works on your human faces, he supposes. It's going to be a bit harder to do the same for his own. Not that he's not going to try, just to see the results.

It looks more akin to a strange Mickey Mouse than to himself. He hasn't seen Mickey Mouse ever before]


In theory the logic is sound, in practice not so much.

[Not that he's not thankful! This is useful]
upgradeit: (i can feel his approach)

It might be easier if you draw yourself from the side? Perspective is weird, if you want to draw your nose straight-on.

[He pauses for a sec and then sketches out a vaguely rat-like side profile.]

Kinda like this? I'm not really used to drawing animals.
