| I don't have the skills to make my drawings come to life...yet. |
Hi, friends!
As promised, here are the answers to my Guess the Movie from the Drawing Game! If you want to quickly go see the original drawings for yourself before you see the comparisons, click HERE.
Thank you so much to everyone who guessed! Scores will be at the bottom, but for now drawings guessed correctly by everyone have an asterisk next to them.
Day 2*:
Prompt: Weave. Film: Tangled (2010)
Day 3:
Prompt: Crown. TV Show: Merlin (2008-12)
This one reminds me a bit of Napoleon Dynamite, because the hair took me an embarrassingly long time. So I've been going around saying:
Day 4:
Prompt: Murky. Film: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)
After this I realized I could just write the prompt on the page a different way. I talked about this scene HERE.
Day 5:
Prompt: Deer. Film: Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (2023)
Holga: "So she did become a deer!"
Edgin: "Only at the very end!"
I just find it a great running gag so that's what I decided to draw.
Day 6:
Prompt: Pierce. Film: The Parent Trap (1998)
This is a very strange way to fill this prompt, but I didn't want to draw anyone dying.
Day 7*:
Prompt: Starfish. Film: Finding Nemo (2003)
Day 8:
Prompt: Reckless. Film: The Great Waldo Pepper (1975)
Well done to Phyl for figuring this one out with my clue!
What happened here is for some reason I decided to start with the wheels, and I drew it in the middle of the page. Then I realized that I was not going to have enough room for Waldo actually doing the reckless act, so everything got a little smushed.
Day 9:
Prompt: Heavy. Film: Les Miserables (2012)
I couldn't get the facial expression quite right, but then I also realized I wasn't using my magic pen, so I'll blame it on that.
This was the first in a pattern I got stuck in, dubbed "guys holding stuff."
Guys holding stuff #2.
Day 11*:
Prompt: Sting. Films: The Lord of the Rings (2001-2003)
Guys holding stuff #3.
Does it look like Frodo? No. But I still think he looks cute, haha! Even my sister who hasn't seen the series knew it was him, so I'm calling that a win.
Day 12*:
Prompt: Shredded. Film: Back to the Future (1985)
This one is my favorite! <3 I just had so much fun drawing Marty's jacket. And face.
Day 13:
Prompt: Drink. Film: Barbie (2023)
I finally was able to break out of the "guys holding stuff" and make it "dolls holding stuff!" ...So does that make this Guys and Dolls...?
Day 14:
Prompt: Trunk. TV Show: A Series of Unfortunate Events (2017-19)
This is immediately what I thought of, which tells you how much of a grasp Lemony Snicket has on my life. I apologize heartily to Hugo for giving him such a long arm. And to Collette for whatever happened when I was drawing her face. And to Kevin, for not really giving him a face...
Day 15:
Prompt: Ragged. Film: Cinderella (2015)
This one had a few things going on. First, I was annoyed that it was so close to the "shredded" prompt because it took me FOREVER to think of that one. So I decided to go with my original idea for that one, and then when I was rewatching the scene I realized the word "ragged" actually is used to describe the character. However, in the reference picture I used the character looked so happy, it made everything ironic. Then I remembered the line "No one's ever painted my portrait" and decided it was about time. XD
It reminds me of another scene in the movie itself:
Honestly I think Anastasia's drawing skills are better than mine.
Has there ever been a bad picture of Captain Jack Sparrow?
This is probably one of my strangest answers to a prompt, but I believe that type of gun is called a blunderbuss?
Day 17:
Prompt: Ornate. Film: The Princess Bride (1987)
By the time I actually got to the "ornate" part, I was a little tired of drawing, hence the squiggly lines.
Day 18:
Prompt: Deal. TV Show: Doom at Your Service (2021)
What's better than making a deal with the devil? Making a deal with Doom himself.
I fully admit that I am obsessed with K-Dramas. This one is fourth in my ranking so far.
Day 19:
Prompt: Arctic. Film: The Golden Compass (2008)
Should we talk about the nose? I don't know what happened, but it's like Flynn Rider.
Day 20:
Prompt: Rivals. Film: Descendants 2 (2017).
Even though I drew Uma twice, I just can't get the angle of her head right. One would think I'd never studied angles even though that's far from the truth...
Day 21:
Prompt: Blast. Film: Nancy Drew (2007)
Any time I just got to stab my pen against the paper a lot was a good day. That's the secret behind my technique.
Day 22*:
Prompt: Button. Film: Penelope (2006)
I adore this coat and scarf, so of course I was going to have to draw it eventually.
Day 23*:
Prompt: Firefly. Film: The Princess and the Frog (2009).
Usually these drawings took me around 40 minutes, but this one was about 5 because I wanted to be able to say I drew it quickly. So enjoy this version of Ray with a slightly wonky smile!
Day 24:
Prompt: Rowdy. Film: It's a Wonderful Life (1946)
Proportions? What are proportions? I just really wanted to draw the guy doing the little cannonball. And it was fun to do something different than what I usually did!
Day 25:
Prompt: Inferno. TV Show: Geek Girl (2024-present)
She does not have the right kind of intensity that I was going for, but I had a ton of fun doing Harriet's hair.
Day 26:
Prompt: Puzzling. Film: Call Northside 777 (1948)
It was pointed out to me that my drawing looks more like Lauren Bacall than Helen Walker and now I can't unsee it. And I'm not surprised that I ended up drawing Jimmy Stewart eventually, though I don't think I'd ever seen anyone doing a puzzle in a film before?
Day 27:
Prompt: Onion. Film: Glass Onion (2022).
Who's excited for Dead Men Tell No Tales??
Day 28:
Prompt: Skeletal. Film: The Book of Life (2014)
The skeleton hands were WAY too much fun to draw, even if they are wildly different sizes.
Day 29:
Prompt: Lesson. Film: The Count of Monte Cristo (2002).
If I keep the practice up, maybe I'll be able to draw as quickly as the priest can move his hands under water drops.
Day 30:
Prompt: Vacant. Film: Charade (1963).
In which I learned how shaky my hands are when I try to draw straight lines.
Day 31:
Prompt: Award. TV Show: Wednesday (2022-present)
I see this as being only the start of me drawing many pictures of Wednesday. Maybe one for every episode...
Scores:
Fiona Cate: 23 (as my sister, she's VERY familiar with what I watch!)
Blue: 12.5
Phyl: 11
Thank you so much for your brilliant guesses! You all did AMAZINGLY.
Stats:
Hands drawn in detail: 31. Ironic, because I'm terrible at hands yet kept finding images to fill the prompts that featured hands.
Guys holding stuff: 11
Mystery-themed: 5
Animated inspiration: 4
Guitars: 2. This feels like that John Mulaney quote of "if I had a nickel..."
Including food or drink: 2
Fire: 2
How do you think I did? Which is your favorite? Which picture do you think is the most accurate to the reference photo? Which one is most stylized?
Thanks for viewing my art! I hope this has inspired you all to try something new, like this was for me! Have a great start to December!
