The Fighter


 This one was really just practise at drawing hands...

This is my most recent picture to date. I'll hopefully have the opportunity to generate new stuff soon.

The Orchidometer

An orchidometer is a medical instrument used to measure the volume of the testicles. It consists of a string of numbered wooden or plastic beads of increasing size, usually from about 1 to 25 ml, however the range of some models may extend to 35 ml or more. The beads are compared with the testicles of the patient, and the volume is read off the bead which matches most closely in size. Prepubertal sizes are 1–3 ml, pubertal sizes are considered 4 ml and up and adult sizes exceed 12 ml.

I have a strange fascination with this device that I can't fully explain. I think it boils down to the idea of testicles being the core of a man's masculinity, the very source of his manhood, and yet they can be measured, quantified and reduced to a objective number.

It was only a matter of time before I tried to draw this concept. 

Looking at this pic, I can tell that the execution is abit of...the proportions of the lower half are out. It was still a lesson though. No ball busting in this one lol...it's more mental ballbusting. What is your manhood worth, but a set of numbers on the orchidometer?
