danikatze:I’m working on a commission for someone who’s making study material about marteloscopes :)) The top one was very complicated and took a while to figure out (oops I forgot to add an arrow, showing that it’s supposed to be read clock-wise), but the bottom drawing I’d done in a jiffy and was really fun ^^ I have three more illustrations to make, but I felt like sharing something lol ID under the cut Keep reading I finished all of the illustrations! :))This one is a different management style from the first illustration of the original post. Instead of thinning the forest every couple of years, everything in a certain area gets chopped down after decades of growth. From what I understand, this used to be the most common, but thinning has become more popular recently.[ID: this illustration is very similar to the first of the original post. It’s a forest, drawn in a circle, essentially divided in three parts, indicating that each part is a phase of a circular process, and that there is no start or finish to this.The part in the back shows a dense forest.The front right part has been fully cut. There are track marks and a pile of tree trunks, with right next to it a field that has been prepared for planting new trees. There already are sings of life in the rows of ploughed earth. On the right, outside the circle is written in capital letters “clearcut,” and at the bottom “planting”In the front left part new trees are growing: they’re sprigs in front, and gradually increasing in size until they are as tall as the trees of the dense forest in the back. /End ID[ID: an illustration showing three spruce trees on the left, and on the right the products that are made using spruce wood: paper, wood pellets and beams (mostly for the structure of buildings like sheds, I believe) /End ID][ID: an illustration showing an oak on the left, and the products that are made using oak wood: firewood, furniture (in this case a chest of drawers) and beams for the structure of houses. /End ID][ID: the same spruces and oak from the previous two illustrations, only there are some signs of mild decay this time. The crown of the front spruce is brown, it’s covered in lichen, there are insect holes in- and a woodpecker on its trunk. A thick branch of the oak has broken off, there a growths, algea and fungi on the trunk. /End ID][ID: an illustration showing a decaying, but still upright tree trunk.There are three bubbles next to the tree, zooming in on creatures that live in and off of the dead wood. From top to bottom: a spotted woodpecker, a European stag beetle and a common noctule bat. /End ID] -- source link
