Hi everyone! I've got a few Leela pics here, all done with an ink pen on paper then scanned. What do you think?


Leela in a really nice Alannah Hill wrap top. Her hair is a bit different from the other pics.


The same top, but this time, with pants and shoes!


Leela ready to go shopping in a slightly modified version of the wrap top in the first two drawings.


Remember that painting of the two cherubs? Well this is Leela in that same pose.


A more romantic Leela.


Leela with her boots off. How long are her pants anyway?

A few different styles and faces (but all with ribbons instead of that chunky scrunchie), but all the same gorgeous cyclops. What do you think?

You've got a strong unique style. The last one would look great in colour

Dolcelannah, all those drwaings above are unbelievable creative and beautiful  :love:
You are really talented  :)

Somehow you style of drawing remembers me how my mother did draw pictures back in the 1960s, but your drawings are far better  :)

I hope you don't mind if I'll take sooner or later the freedom to colorize one of the pictures above (using a paint programm).

Anyhow, your art-work is very beautiful and creative  :) Welcome to the circle of Futurama drawing artists  :)

But I thought that you were an Amy fan, until you changed your avatar that is.

I like it.  Now all you need is Amy on the other side, in the pose of the other cherub.

Thanks - well, I was always more of a Leela fan, but when I signed up I just liked that particular avvie with the birthday hat  :) but to celebrate being a Bending Unit, I've changed it all to that sweet one with the flower.  :)

Thanks for all the feedback guys!  :D  I'll put some colour-penciled ones up soon!

I like your transfer from the groening overbite style inot a realism thing, but Leela's noses looks too small I think.

Hmm... MAYBE the pants are tucked in her socks! So the pants go on forever! Well, only 'til the end of heer feet... but you never know. And why are they so puffy at the boddom? Does she have extremely big underlegs(?) or are they just filled with air? The mystery is unsolvable...

It didn't scan too well, but if anyone could make it into an avy (you can cut out all that white stuff) it would be greatly appreciated.  :)

Again, wonderful and lovely art-work by you Dolcelannah   :love:
With that much talent and creativity you can do very much and "a lot doors in life are opened for you". (I guess you have a similar phrase like this in English   :)

Would you like to make a drawing of this young woman here -->  http://www.thelesbianleela.netfirms.com/danieladanieladaniela.jpg  ?
you probably have to copy and paste the adress to the adress-bar above

You've guessed right, it's me ... just that I have much longer hair right now ... and other glasses (John Lennon glasses) ... *sighs* I think I should upload a new photo sometimes (that one above is from August ... ehm ... 2002   :rolleyes: )

My glasses? I've got them as a present from a friend. The frame (sp?) around the glasses is around 23 years old by now.
To my knowledge it's very difficult to buy Lennon-glasses somewhere today, basicly because nearly no-one sells them anymore.
A good idea would be to buy used glasses somewhere ... or to have a friend who owns such glasses and does not need them anymore.

You have a lovely style, very free and relaxed in your sketching. It gives the drawings a true sense of character and depth.
Do you do those when you're at Pehnros. I was at a PSA school as well, and mine didn't allow for a huge amount of creative expression.

...It's me, isn't it?

Good style... but is she supposed to look younger?
I'dunno, she just seems to be less then the bitter husk of humanity that long ago gave up finding love in this lifetime...

It's a Leela from a more carefree time... I like it.  :)

The one described as 'more romantic' is fantastic, and so's the coloured one. Really like the head-and-arm stuff, too. Great stoof.

You've got real talent! I've tried my own creation on Dr.Jerkbird's art post and it's crap. But yours is amazing. I'm only 13 thats  why it's so rubbish. But if you could give me some tips on drawing or what gave you the idea for your drawings (im also having trouble of thinking what to draw) then it would be greatly appreicated.

Thanks for all the comments guys, they really brighten my day.   :)

Iron Chef: Which school did you go to? I'm still at school (in year 12) so I did do them while I was at school, but not actually in school, if you know what I mean. I don't draw stuff in class, because I'm trying to make sure I get really good marks this year, my final one!   :)

Mrs Bender: That's not a bad idea! A sketch site would be cool, although I tend not to draw much apart from Leela... unless it's for school (I do TEE Art). I doodle a bit, but never do proper planned drawings, as I quickly get bored of doing any particular drawing for extended periods of time. I draw myself a bit though, and last year I did a B+W lino print of King St (a little coffee/shopping street in town). I couldn't scan it though, as it's too big for my scanner.

SJM: I don't know really, they just sort of turned out that way. I think it's because I tend to draw people with big, curved cheeks and cheekbones, and that's quite a young facial feature.

Dr. Jerkbird: Just keep trying and you'll get there. Everyone has to work at things to make them happen, and it won't take long before you get where you want to be. With Leela, the best thing to do if you want the Groening style is to get the feel of how she works. Don't copy her, just trace her a few times to get the hang of her face and body. Then you'll get a feel for how high the ponytail goes, how much it curves, how low the fringe goes, etc. Also, when you first start to copy, use a nice thick pen to give you confidence - the thick lines will give you a less accurate representation, which is sometimes a good thing (trust me). So trace, trace, trace and then, when you feel like you've got the hang of it, try drawing it freehand. I find it's good to have a process - mine goes like this (for Groening-Leelas):

Draw the ear.
Draw the curvy bottom part of her hair.
Extend it upwards, drawing in the two spikes and coming down to her fringe.
Do the inner fringe line, pulling your pen to about where the crease in her hair is, but a bit away from it.
Draw the two bits of hair, making sure the second one goes over her ear.

Now that was the hard bit - once you've got that bit in, you have a template for the rest. Next,

Draw in the eye behind the fringe, add eyelashes and pupil.
Whack in the nose.
Extend a line from a point in the hair, then draw in the mouth.
Draw the lips.
Draw the neck, just two straight lines, one from halfway across the lips and the other from the ear.
Draw in the ponytail.

I won't tell you how to draw the body, because it's pretty much a normal body, so you could just practise drawing other people. Or trace her body again and again so you can get a feel for it.

Hope that's helpful, and thanks again so much for all your comments!   :D

Edit: Oop! I forgot! At the moment I'm doing a Leela cross-stitch, so you can expect to see that up here pretty soon. It's been taking a while though, so I might get a bit frustrated with it and forget about it at some point, but oh well. At least you all know I tried.

Dolcelannah, I was an old Hale leaver from 2002. I left Art after year 10 becuase the don't tend to prescribe much outside the core curriculum. It is all a little constricting. So it is interesting to see that you did them during your study periods or something.
It is also good to see that you are concentrating on your marks because your TEE is a very important facet of your future learning. I wish you the best of luck in your subjects, especially art, because your drawing style is quite superb.
