Week 8 Progress

 I am pretty happy with my progress so far. I've kept with the course and not missed an assignment. I do wish I had worked ahead though. I started off a week ahead, but I quickly fell back to being just in time. I think as the semester ramped up, I definitely let these assignments slip a little bit. 

Looking forward, I want to see if I can find more time to work ahead rather than just going with whatever is due that day.

I've been working on studying the parts of the face and I think I've been improving with these lips. A lot of what has helped me is thinking about how goes around a round object. This and working from references to see how things are actually supposed to look, rather than what my mind thinks they look like, are the biggest factors in trying to get better for me.

Week 7 Story: The Devil's Lair

( Jomblang Cave by Thomas Fuhrmann)   The Devil's Lair The Monkey King Sun Wu Kong stood before the mighty entrance of the Devil-King's lair. He had taken Sun Wu Kong's kin and had to be put in his place. This could not be forgiven. As the Monkey King entered the underground chamber, the servants of the Devil-King trembled. Sun Wu Kong's terrible rage and battle prowess was well known. They didn't know if even their own King could defeat him.  "Hey!" bellowed the stone ape, "Give me back my kids!!" evidently he wanted to try negotiation first. Stammering, the Devil-King responded, "Wait don't you want to fight me?" He had not expected the legendary Sun Wu Kong to reason before using his brawn. "Of course, but I'm trying to control myself so they don't have to see your sorry state after I'm done with you." The Devil-King didn't even know how to react. He just stared in disbelief. "How could he be so ca...

Reading Notes: Week 2 Anthology

The Tiger, The Brahman, The Jackal by Joseph Jacobs in "Indian Fairy Tales." : (Bengal Tiger source ) Characters: A Tiger, Brahman, Jackal, Tree, Buffalo, and a Road. Plot:  The Brahman frees a tiger from a cage, but the tiger wants to eat him. He goes and asks a Tree, Road, and a Jackal if he should accept being eaten. Everyone except the Jackal says he should accept being eaten. The Jackal tricks the tiger into going back into the cage, saving the Brahman.  Techniques that were interesting:  The author build tension by having by having two of the character that the Brahman asks for help tell him to just accept his fate like it's just how the world works. He (author) made it seem like the Brahman would probably have to accept it. Also, how convincing was this tiger, Like having a tiger slave would be cool, but like what were the logistics of it. Why'd he think this was at all a good idea.  Also, I liked that the jackal didn't go right into helping the man out. H...
