Description
Visual Dynamics Assignment no1We were asked to make a drawing with as many lines we could. And we had to use colors. He said only one color (except black) would be okay, so there! I didn't really know what to do. So, when in doubt, draw Russian misery. I never really tried to work only with lines so I tried stuff. It looks average.

This slogan (People and army are as one) was used only by Red Army after 1917 Revolution, and never was used in Czar Army!!! But, as I can see officers on the picture are from Czar Army.

Actually I thought that may be you will be interested in a REAL history. Thatβs why I wrote my comment. But as I can clear see you are not. As all Americans do

So, as soon as you see an ignorant person on the internet, you assume he's American? Pity.
π: 0 β©: 1
No, of course not! I like Americans. I know many stupid and pity people from my country as well, for example. And in any nation you can find a pity.
I think you are a very good person and have a big talent. I just made some comments in your galery, that's all.

Persons that had a hissy fit about a quote that could be applied to suffering of the Russian people before the revolution: 1 (you)

I can tell you that MUCH more Russians were suffering AFTER the revolution.

Russian suffered before and after the revolution. A good lot is still suffering today.

Well I don't know! Your people had a very harsh history, maybe with time, you just got good at it.

Its more of a tragic history than a harsh history. And we tend to refute the tragedy and replace it by idolizing old times. It's misunderstood.

What I like the most about this drawing is how it looks a bit as though it were a paper cut out. Or those serial bars on a food product. (I DON'T KNOW WHY, IT JUST REMINDS ME OF THAT.)
I also like your choice of colours, the red really contrasts with the... Blue/black. (Whatever colour it is. :/) And it also stands out clearly from the background.
Another think I like is how you drew the men. I like the beard on the one at the far left, and I like how you drew their eyes. You can tell they're feeling miserable.
All in all, I think you drew this extremely well.
PS: I like the hats.

I really appreciate the facial expressions combined with the stark contrast of colors. Well played sah....

SURPRISE everything went better than expected!

Au contraire, je trouve que Γ§a ressemble Γ©normΓ©ment au style graphique des affiches propagandistes russes (je ne saurais dire quelles annΓ©es exactement).
Bref, la dynamique est vraiment lΓ . Et les personnages sont misΓ©rables. Dans le bon sens... ?

Misérable, c'est le bon mot. Comme dit plus tôt; de la misère DYNAMIQUE!

Only thing: I prefer the one of the right than the left one (in the red and black presentation).
Lines mean shapes (something really simple and with form), and the right ones are more simplistic and show exactly what you want (thatΒ΄s why sence always rocks).
But the ones on the left have a little effect of gradients on the shading and make it looks more complex and maybe outside of pure shapes.
But like I said, is only my preference, and I always try (in my stuffs) make it as more simple but complete as posible, is a good but quiet expensive technique.
At last, you always nail right on these stuffs.

Am I correct to suspect the little bit in Russian in the upper right is a word signifying frustration?
π: 0 β©: 1
The little bit of "Russian" in the upper corner is my signature: DANY 09
π: 0 β©: 0
Nearly 100 years of poverty, revolution, Stalinism, total war, and economic collapse.
Hardy people, the Russians are.

Robust and simple, just like their weaponry.

Bah, slightly over average.

Oh, YEAH? Well I'm slightly UNDER average. Take that!
Wait...

Liking that line/hatch shading! They're experiencing some very... dynamic suffering.

I really love the style that this came out in. I think the lines effect makes it unique, and the use of just the one additional color really brings it out and adds a nice touch. As always, I love your detail.
