SciFi and Fantasy Art Falling by Merryl Jensen


	This was a sketch I did when I was depressed. I thought it was rather sad untill my mother pointed out he's hanging by the end of his rope, so hes more frusterated then sad. I suppose it's the same idea but it lost some of its meaning. I still like it anyway.

27 Sep 2002	Deitz2	Loading... Beautiful! Great job on the shading, proportions, and wings (ack I hate drawing feathers). And this could definitely be a happy picture. My first impression when I saw it was that someone was pulling him up by rope, back to solid ground, but I also see how it can be sad. Wow, I love pictures with multiple approaches! Amazing job! Merryl Jensen replies: "yes multiple approaches are good! thanks for the comment!"
27 Jan 2003	Larka	Loading... i like it...it is sort of sad..my only comment is his toes dont seem attached to his feet....more like round ovals under the foot shape...other than that..YOU CAN MAKE GOOOD WINGS!!! lucky artistic person....i like his arm and how it hangs onto th rope like that...he must have rope burns...ick... Merryl Jensen replies: "Ow..rope burn::whimper::The feet do have problems. I can draw wings but I CANT DRAW FEET!Thanks for the comment glad you like it. "
27 Jan 2003	Samuel 'DarkHawke' Beaven	Loading... Proportions are good, nice wing structure. Merryl Jensen replies: "thank ya!"
28 Jan 2003	Anonymous	Loading... Erm...His feet are backwards... Merryl Jensen replies: "Thats just because he walks a different path..."
8 Oct 2003	Dragonflysunshine <d	Loading... I like the way you drew the wings connecting to the body, a lot of people have problems depicting that (me included LOL) I think the toes are pretty good really!!! I think that more than likely the scan took away a little of the detail in the lines coming from the toes to the feet. (did you really mean to make the feet backwords though =P heheh) Your feather detail is wonderful, that really does take a lot of patience and adds so much to the drawing!!!
1 Dec 2003	Anonymous	Loading... I love the picture... But the after looking at it for a moment I noticed the feet are on the wrong legs or the toes are on the wrong feet or something... Its really good though hun.... Dont give Up
9 Oct 2005	The Gothy Girl	Loading... Y can't he just fly up?

18 Oct 2005	Cherokee Lady	Loading... Because Gothy Girl he's hanging. Anyway I love this pic...when i first saw it i was a little shocked by it but now its stunning. deffo a Mods choice if I was a mod that is!
