    Ok. My final art project is due next week, and I'm having a brain cramp or something. Here's the details.

    The project is a surrealistic drawing of "little people" performing some sort of task.

    For example, one person is having these "little people" opening a pack of Orbits gum, and another has them performing an execution with a stapler, so it is a pretty wide open topic, which is why I think I'm having trouble thinking of a good idea. Keep in mind these people are to be very small, as like 5 of them are working in different ways to open the gum, etc.

    I'll try to reward those with good ideas in some way. I appreciate any help.

    It can basically be anything. My teacher did one awhile back of them braking out of a crumpled up piece of paper, it was pretty cool.

    A group of little people are trying to launch one little person like an airplane. THe one little person is sitting on a leaf with the rest of the little people under him.

    You can have them all trying to open up some sort of candy bar wrapper. (going off of the gum idea).

    You can have a guy maybe bungie jumping, and the string could be dental floss. And the 4 others could b holding onto the guy jumping.

    Haha I like this, I actually had a similar idea of them trying to use a Dorito as a hang-glider. :lol:

    You can have them breaking pieces off a large cookie, and carrying the pieces away in an orderly fashion such as ants.

    I have one that I was saving for when I get good with modeling in c4d because I plan on doing it myself actually.

    Just tell me what medium you are using, and I will see if it is right for the piece

    This is not computer-aided design - just good old pencil and paper.

    They all stack on top of each other, pinned against what may seem like a normal glass of water to us, to drink. There's like a queue to who's next to go top or something and one person is at the rim of the glass making sure the others are doing it in orderly fashion. :P
