Today’s #calendardoodle #dnd #prompt : favorite class? Even though I rarely play them I choose #Rogue because they are so fun and cool! Had to throw back to the #roguesdoitfrombehind shirt that @aimo_ahmed drew her dragon age rogues in.

Day 8, bird 8: Short-tailed Pygmy Tyrant... I spent a big chunk of he day working with live, big birds (coping beaks and talons at the raptor sanctuary I volunteer at). Even the American Kestrel was way bigger than this little bird. The doodle CLEARLY doesn’t do it justice, and that’s both a skill gap and a time management issue... sigh.

Welp, I did the thing. 365 doodles in 365 days (364 birds, 1 mammal).

They’re not great drawings... the vast majority of them aren’t even GOOD drawings, but quality wasn’t exactly the point with this exercise.

Some lessons learned:

1) ballpoint pen... not easy.

2) I’m not a fan of lined paper.

3) Most of these doodles were done at the end of the day, after everything else was done for the day. That was difficult, because I’m tired at the end of the day and the light isn’t great.

4) There are a few repeated birds. As it turns out, this works out better with some planning. Huh.

5) You can accomplish something in about 35 minutes a day, but with limitations.

It has been a good exercise, one that I hope to continue in a slightly different form... maybe. We’ll see...
