Colleagues, today I painted a new drawing, this one called i17 Didgeridoo. For those who don't know it, we could say it's a precursor to modern flutes. In other words, it's very old. What makes it special is the way it's played, because instead of blowing like other flutes normally do, this one is played by buzzing or creating a buzzing sound with the lips.
Speaking of the instrument, what I like most about it is its ancient design. I mean by the tribal designs painted on one of its sides. They make it look like it's from some ancient culture, and in fact, it is, because according to some studies, this instrument was invented millennia ago. So, the original card design captures it perfectly.
Well, now I'm going to show you how I made the drawing. First, I made the frame of the card. This is the main part and what will define the size of the things that will later go inside.
Once I had the frame ready, I made the body of the didgeridoo. It's a long, elongated tube. Next, I made the support that it has on the edge, which in real life holds it in that position. You can see both pieces below.
Now that I had that ready, I tried to do the tribal designs that the original drawing had. I'm not a professional painter, so I gave it my try. Haha, then you can tell me what you thought of those tribal designs and drawings on one side. I also added other details to the support and other sides to make it look nicer and less flat.
It's time to paint, friends. If you already know the most interesting part, where this drawing comes to life. Let's go.
With everything painted and ready, friends, all that's left is for you to see how it turned out when I added the final details. And with that, it's ready. See you, friends.
