I Added One Character A Day To This Drawing For 37 Days Until I Got This Result

ADVERTISEMENT

Hi everyone! It has been a while. This is Eric Keledjian, I am a freelance illustrator as well as an ESL teacher in China. In the past, I have created a few projects and posted here on Bored Panda and my Facebook in which I start with a single drawing and each day without rest I add something new. In the past, I have done Christmas, forest, and underwater drawings. This new project I pushed myself even further. The goals I set for myself was that I wanted to draw in full color and continue the project past my previous record of 31 days. I still followed with the idea of using a single theme and built my world off that. The theme for this was city living.

I was living in China at the time of this piece so this image was helpful to me to keep busy. During the height of corona in China, I was stuck inside away from family and friends. This project was something to keep me calm and was something I loved working on as well.

I hope you all enjoy this piece and please if you like it add me on my social media. If you can support me on Patreon I would appreciate it. With more support and encouragement I would like to work on my art pieces more often and develop a comic strip about my time as a teacher. Thanks!

    I really love your creativity, it’s a A-meizing (overwatch reference). In one of your next drawings you should have kfc clown 🤡 (maybe from dead by daylight if u know the game)it’s finger lickin good. (Please don’t hate its just idea). I’m sorry I’m a little weird. 😅😓 Anyways good luck continuing your work.

    This is truly amazing from start to finish I was curious as to how it would all come together and how you can possibly add 37 characters into that one drawing when I realized you expanded it it made it all the better this was so phenomenal and as an artist myself I have to say that you did such a good job portraying this and keeping up the creativity.

    nope, just a coincidence. I had to google search to find out who you meant. But I agree there is a similarity for sure.

    Awesome finish! Got a laugh out of me. You are the art god!! So creative! The shade kinda triggered my OCD a little 😬 but still amazing!! Also, I noticed that it is called Flim Flam banking, you a fellow Flamingo fan?

    what is flamingo? I know the animal but not much else. I just picked an old phrase for being cheated, flimflam. I am glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your comment

    This reminds me of a drawing from years ago. Same idea of adding people on the drawing. Cool stuff to do, I guess I can only doodle random shapes.

    In the light of current circumstances, maybe add masks to every character? (Space squid and underground man-eating plant included!)
