Things I have learned in 2012: 1

When doing a Google Image search for 'men's feet', make sure that the filter is set to Strict Safe Search.

You would not believe what Google considers Moderate!

So many possible smutty lies ...

The embarrassing truth is that a friend has a shortage of fanartists for her fest, and I said that I would love to help, but alas, I am not great at drawing the male figure yet, only female nudes and feet. You can probably guess the sequence of events from there ;-)

(Seriously, there were multiple penes in some of those moderate shots!)

No use, he's playing Skyrim! Also, I need a few pairs of different looking ones. I think I'll have to haul out the art books ...

LOL. I'm assuming it's not just feet you need, but attached to figures in various poses? If so: Brammers, ur doin it rong. You just need to make a post to your LJ asking your f-list to post their favourite pics of barefoot celebrities...

D'OH! You're completely right! But I've broken out the art books in a bid to look for some classical references tonight. It's ever so likely that I'll not be able to get the foreshortening right at all -- I think I'm six months off being good enough at shading to carry that sort of thing off well.

And GET WELL!

I'm honestly a lot better than I was - it's just a reaction to the inoculation rather than full-on typhoid, so not all that bad really...

*Snort* Despite your evil ways, I am so not writing Draco's Spare Feet For Those Who Judge By Toe Length ;-)

And HURRAH for getting better!

*puts two and two together* What! You will be doing Beltane art? Why didn't I put art as a gift option in my sign up! :)

Oh it's about a 10% chance -- I am passable at female forms, but not great at male. NEXT year, we could be in luck ;-)
