This week is maths week. Throughout the week we have been working on our scale drawings. This is my second time doing this. Last time I drew Kevin Hearts character in the movie "The Secret Life of Pets", a rabbit called Snowball. The first step was to find an image that you would want to draw. I found it hard trying to figure out what image I wanted to make an enlargement of. Finally, I decided on drawing Simba from Lion King. After my image was printed out I used a ruler to measure the border of the image and draw a grid. Each square was 1 cm. Then I multiplied it by 2 to get the enlargement. It was a 1:2 ratio. I drew my scale drawing by copying one square at a time. Once I finished I colored it in. Lastly, I cut out and glued on my name tag, the image and my finished drawing. Looking at my finished product I feel like I have done a much better job than last year.
WOW Tiava, I am SUPER IMPRESSED with your scale drawing! You are a real artist. Thank you for using a great explanation in the blogpost to tell me exactly what you have done. It's great that you can compare to last years scale drawing and know you have done a much better job. I can only imagine what your next one will be like! Have you done lots of artwork?

ReplyDeleteHello Tiava, I'm Isabel from Westland High School. I really like how you did the drawing and I never knew maths could be fun. How long did it take you to do it? Maybe next time you do it you could put more colour on the body. Why do you think you did better this time? Happy blogging.
ReplyDeleteHi Tiava,I liked your scale drawing of Simba. It's an amazing likeness to Simba. You did a good job! It could have been a little better. If you used more colour and shading. Other wise it's an amazing drawing

Kia ora Tiava,My name is Alicia from Westland High School.That drawing looks FANTASTIC it looks like you put a lot of effort in to the drawing with all the shading and making it look just like Simba. My question is how long did it take you to draw this fine piece of art? Maybe next time you might want to use dark orange instead of red. Here is a link to my blog https://kanierealiciao.blogspot.com/ Happy blogging.

Hi Tiava,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Shyana from Westland High School. I love the details you put in your scale drawing of Simba. I thought it looked spectacular and the colour you used above the eyes really stands out. My question is why did you choose Simba? Maybe next time don’t use really light colours because in the photo the yellow is very light. Here is a link to my blog. http://whs17shyanah.blogspot.com/ Happy blogging!
Hi Tiava! I’m Georgia from Westland High School and your Simba drawing is totally amazing! Who knew maths could be so fun? Maybe use a lighter colour on the chest so it’s not so bold. I’ll have to ask the teacher if we could do this as an exercise! Happy blogging.
ReplyDeleteHi Tiava I, love this post of yours on scale drawings. You are a very amazing drawer. I love how much detail you put into this and your time and effort. And one question, what is maths week?. Happy blogging.

Hello. I think your scale drawing is awsome. I think with a bit darker colours it could pass for the real Simba. I remember being addicted to this movie when I was younger. Come check out my blog at http://whs18seant.blogspot.com/.
