Doodle Test: Drawing Bikes in Perspective
November 22nd, 2006
Drawing bikes is tricky. Drawing bikes in perspective, changing as they turn corners and come closer to the viewer is even trickier.

I yearn for the day when I can draw a bike. For such a marvelous example of mechanical simplicity, the bicycle can be so hard to draw! Why is that? Is it the combination of straight lines mingling with circles? Heh, looks like the kid[s] are in formation. Attack!

Saw Quicksilver on FLiX the other day. Priceless. I can add that to the list of Kevin Bacon movies I love to hate. Oddly enough, though, I couldn’t stop watching.

Cool! I have seen that friggin’ movie so many times! There are a lot of fixed gear bikes in there. It’s funny, sometimes Kevin Bacon’s bike changes from fixed gear to freewheel in the middle of a scene. But, then again, sometimes the city changes from NYC to SF in the middle of a scene. Kind of a messenger’s wet dream really.
There’s an awesome trick scene, where all the messengers are fooling around out behind “base”. They got some pro 80’s bmx riders on fixed gear bikes doing all sorts of sick tricks!!

Yeah, I was pretty impressed with his “natural” transition from high-powered stockbroker to ballet biker. Did I miss something?
