Those look amazing!

Doing them with the blind contour technique is a really good idea.

Ooh, interesting way to approach it! The end result is quite surreal. :)

[goss]

Thanks!

Yeah, the results kind of reminds me of cubism, with all details present, but things being placed in not quite their correct spots.

Wow, the correction fluid with the watercolor has an incredible effect with the blind contour drawing, it's really beautiful. I'm going to have to give blind contour drawing a try.

I love how your blind contour drawings look like wire sculptures.
