Art dump cuz summer vacay is finally here :D Figures: Newton, Halley, Hooke, Boyle, and Flamsteed

A pioneer of modern chemistry and a founder member of the Royal Society, Boyle is most famous for ‘Boyle’s Law’ of the pressure and volume of gases. His commitment to experimentation and meticulous observation resulted in many important discoveries. Boyle’s theory that black skin was a degenerate version of white skin was used to justify slavery. He became increasingly uncomfortable with the cruelty that led from this, but never questioned the existence of the slave trade. Boyle’s wealthy, aristocratic background and his scholarly interests are referred to in his portrait, in the richly decorated room, black academic gown and book.

It takes 3-4 days to finish it 😭😭

Robert Boyle, an Irish/English experimental natural philosopher and chemist, died in London on Dec. 30, 1691, at the age of 64.

I was trying to show that Robert Boyle’s eyes freak me out but I wasn’t sure how to do that on a funko pop so

idk i just wanted to draw Newton in that simple style again and that went too far
