Mammals
Camel Eye
Posted 09/14/2008 - 20:14 by onlypencil
There are two types of camels. The Bactrian, which has only two humps and the Dromedary which has one hump. The Bactrian camel is much shorter and can endure much more extreme temperatures, from hot weather in Iran to freezing temperatures in Tibet. Its wool is much finer than the Dromedary. A male is called a bull, a female is a cow and a baby i called a calf. When calfs are born they weight 40-50kg but when fully grown they can weigh up to 600kgs. These animals can live up to 50 years and reach their full size by the age of 2.
Rabbit Eye

Well here is an adorable rabbit? Thats how others see rabbits, as adorable,fluffy,cute animals. Not me, they freak me out. They're recognized by their long ears and their big teeth. For some reason I'm scared that they'll bite me and its gonna really hurt, especially with those teeth. I've never seen anyone get bitten by one, but that crosses my mind every time someone grabs one or i have one close.
Gorilla Eye

I have done several drawings of primates and i have to say to say that every time i draw them they are the only animals that i can feel emotion. Emotions and feelings that us humans show in our eyes. Its unbelievable how expressive these animals are and how close they are to us. The only thing missing from them is to be able to talk. They are such incredible animals, especially gorillas, but unfortunately they are hunted and killed for the black market. Its just sad that there are people who cannot see the beauty in these animals and don't think of the consequences of their actions. Once we lose them we will not be able to give future generations the opportunity to see one of the most incredible animals on this planet.
Grey Wolf

When i was a kid i remember how i used to love wolves and still do. I remember that for Halloween i would put on a werewolf mask and would go scare whoever i could find on the streets. I was the werewolf for three years straight. I loved the wolf back then because of its ferocity. Not only do i love them for that now but because of its beauty,intelligence and mystery. I would watch anything on television that had anything to do with wolves. They are incredible animals.
This drawing that i did was of a gray wolf, also known as a timber wolf.
Lioness Eye

A king is nothing without his queen. Well the lioness is to the lion as the queen is to a king. The lioness has been given the title and has been recognized through mans existence as the pinnacle of hunting prowess. They are main bread makers you can say.
Horse Eye

By far the horses have some of the most reflective eyes i have ever seen. When looking at them up close, its like looking into a mirror sphere. In this drawing i tried to capture the background scene, which shows a hill and sky. They are very distinct and you can tell that its a horses eye just by looking at it.
A horses vision vastly differs from ours in that we can see in front of us.
Tiger Eye

There is nothing more beautiful than a tiger. These are one of my favorite animals, not only to look at but to draw. They are powerful and elegant, sadly there are in danger of going extinct. Here is a little description about the tiger. Tigers are found in the forests of Asia and are subdivided into 6 subspecies. The Amur or Siberian, which is my favorite of all the tigers, sumatran,malayan,North Indochinese, Bengal and South China or amoy. Basically the main reason why they fall into each category is the location that they are found.
Human Eye

This drawing was my inspiration to start this website. Because of it i realized that we go through life just glancing at things without actually paying attention to what really is in front of us. I made t his drawing for a drawing tutorial and something that i always tell people before they start to draw is to first study what they will be drawing. You can't draw what you don't know or understand. So the better the know about it, the easier it will be to put down. We all have eyes but we have no idea what they really look like.
