slowly drawing a longer comic (posting pages as i finish them)
- holy fuck, i've been struggling to find more examples of classical girl penis and just found a bunch unfamiliar to me on a random travel website www.my-favourite-planet.de/english/peop...
- before now i only knew about the "sleeping hermaphroditus" variant, and the "hermaphroditus-satyr group" variant. cool to see single-figure standing variants
- i've been putting off doing serious research on these sculptures (because it pushes back the drawing, and because i have other research to do for my day job) but i broke the seal and this is a good recent article. focused on Roman examples but touches on Greek too online.ucpress.edu/ca/article-a...

- reading up on classical female nudes. a 4th-century-bc artist called praxiteles sculpted a nude that was famous in his day and inspired lots of copies and variants. pic is a Roman copy of his famous nude, the "aphrodite of knidos"
- another one
- studies
- very tgirl-coded dionysus (yale university art gallery, 150 bc - ad 100)
- (images from different angles here: artgallery.yale.edu/collections/...)
- venus putting on her necklace
- finished a longish script/storyboard and mostly figured out characters for lives of the artists. wanna do some inking studies next, with the hopes of getting back to drawing actual pages in February. it’s coming along
