the fact the new series of hypothetical isn’t allowed to talk about the pandemic just in case people forget it happened is genuinely the funniest thing i’ve ever heard

Watch me scheduling this to be re-reblogged in two years for obvious reasons that I might forget in that time.

Hello! Do you have any tips for drawing cows? I really struggle with stylizing them and I love how you draw them

sorry this took so long to reply to but i finally got around to cows again.

western cattle are very much an arrangement of rectangles. their topline is straight and angular contrasted by their flabby skin and wrinkles, then you see them from the front or back and they’re round?? the best way to learn to draw animals is life sketches, I go to our annual agriculture show to see cows. They’re also shaved for the show ring there so i get a clear image of them.

looking at skeletals and anatomy drawings is also helps a lot, i recommend Hermann Dittrich’s lithographs and Jack Hamm’s ‘how to draw animals’

when you can visualize the shapes you can start to play with them and stylize

cows and horses are not closely related and their skeletons are very different, especially their hindquarters. i’m not sure what other specific tips i have i hope these help
