what the hell is this about?

Several friends have embarked on their own P365 journey but as I have no camera nor an eye for photography I've decided to try to complete "a doodle a day" for an entire year. Most will be in my little Derwent A5 sketch book but some could end up being from the corner of some document or scribbled on a newspaper. As the year progresses I will try my hand at inking them as well?

If some of them don't make sense, don't worry, they're probably not meant to. You may notice there will be certain themes along the way and if you know me you'll know why.

I hope you enjoy.

Okay, here goes, every day til I'm 39.

Day #76 - Bumblebee


I was watching this show on Discovery Science the other night and it was about these guys that fabricate things to be used in the movies from scratch, modelling, casting, painting etc. Anyway, these guys made Bumblebee!

They had to make the life-size version of Bumblebee for the Transformers movie, Michael Bay wanted the actors to be able to 'touch' bumblebee to get realism in their acting (I've seen Transformers and the robots look more life-like than the actors) and this model was used in the scene where they trap him in the net.

It was an awesome show, even Vic enjoyed it and for the nerds amongst us they had a 3d printer, a printer that printer 3d models, it was amazing.

So I it got to 10:15 tonight and I had no idea what I should draw so I thought I'd try Bumblebee, again, not my strength but hey, I'm getting better.
