(A drawing of Stephen Meeks from Dead Poets Society (1989). It is a redraw of the character from a screenshot, which is cut out and placed in the upper left corner of the canvas. It is shaded with purple and the style is a mix between cartoony and realistic, with visible lineart. There are some noticeable differences between the screenshot and the drawing - the drawing has Meeks wearing chunky star earrings (left one bring purple, right one being green), there are no highlights except for on his glasses, his gold badges on his suit don't have any detail and his pupils are a different colour. The canvas is a dark beige background, and the drawing itself is outlined with white. To the right of the drawing is a small, white star. To thr left of the drawing it says: "Steven Meeks" (written as "STeVeN MEEKS"). Underneath the cutout of the screenshot, it says: "Re-Draw!" (written as "Re-DRAW!"))

can you tell i suck at redraws and shading...

speed paint under the cut :]

also i apologise for the fact the shaded and un-shaded versions look different, I changed the un-shaded version a little before shading it.

Fun Fact! The movie "Dead Poets Society" came out 5 days after the Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia started. :]

something i love about dps is that in a lot of scenes (especially at the beginning) you can faintly hear someone calling out meeks' name - though, that might just be me hearing things haha

specifically, in the stair scene, whilr the camera is on the left side of the staircase, you can hear someone going "meeks! meeks!!" and when everyone enters keating's class for the first time, you can also hear someone calling out meeks name, albeit much more quietly

if anyone knows any other scenes where this happens let me know :33

either its charlie calling out meeks name (theyre in LOVE your honour) OR, meeks is the universal nerd that everyone in her grade can count on to help them with their homework a couple of seconds before class starts and i love both possibilities
