Uaso - The final stepouts

Tea bag envelopes will have to wait, I want to post this now that it's fresh in my mind.

I am singing in my mind the final stepouts like the final countdown!

A fellow CZTs has asked me via message for some clarifications about drawing Uaso. I was at one of my live tangling meetings, and the other attendant and I were drawing different things, so I went on drawing it on a tan tile.

First I drew the bodies random.

Then I drew the wings on top. I tried to draw the point till it touches the border or another element

I first did it with birds close to borders, then close to other elements.

Then I drew the other wings. The closer to something else, the better to get a feeling for it. I turned my tile, it can be easier to turn the tile like I did.

Then the same with the tails. First I tangled the ones that started closer to borders or other elements.

I like when the top of the tail follows the curve of the body of the bird.

Then... It's a matter of conflict resolution. I think here it's better to draw first the tail on the left

Maybe it can go downwards so that there's place to develop a bit for both tails

Then you can draw something else in the place you have, or draw more bodies. Or draw wings downwards. Till they reach an element

But this comes automatic to me. It can also go by drawing in general shorter tails and wings

Here I tried to implement curly overlapping wings on the bottom like the CZT asking me was trying out.

Here I added my Ciottoli as textured background and another bird.

Back at home I added chalks. I like tortillions better with graphite and stomps with chalk. Do you have an opinion there? Here I used the tortillion.

Here I tried to blur more the pink with a stomp.

I very much like the image with the negative filter! :D

And I forgot the final version with the chop, date and hairspray to fix a bit more the color!

Let me know if you would like the post better when all pictures are bigger. This is for users of the web version, probably all pics in the mobile version have the same size.

It was fun! If anybody has questions about any deconstruction of my patterns please ask, it should be fun to create another simple tile with few patterns to show it!
