Be Brave!

What an intense month it's been! I just have to be like Merida and stay strong and Brave in the face of adversity! (Also old age - I turned 24 bah!)

 The full image! I think I will make it into a bookmark for myself!

 Details shot of her face!

 A scary thing happened when I turned off some layers when I was getting started. AHHHHhhhhhh..!!

What it looked like in the sketchbook - my fingers popped into the scan P: I love working in this small format with pen. I originally drew this the night after coming home from seeing the movie in theaters the first week it was released (very delayed, I know - my free time has been far and inbetween) and I didn't know if it was Merida or Meridah... after several moments of thought I decided to add the H at the end, a few more moments and I didn't think the H should be there and tried to draw a bear over it - haha. All laugh at my fail bear. (I know what I should practice next!)

So I scanned a full sketchbook of small pen works - so expect more frequent updates cause I finally set up my scanner!

Peanut out!

Is Nightmare Before Christmas a Christmas or Halloween movie?

Yes.

 

Hope everyone has an excellent and safe holiday!

Peanut out!

The Sea Witch

Painted up a sketch I did last year. Done for Boris' bday, which is now very much past, although it was only a few days late by the time I had finished it, I ended up forgetting about it for like 3 weeks and then I realized I had forgotten her earrings. Heh.

Not too sure where I sit on this image... Since the sketch was from last year and I've improved since last year, or, at least I think(hope?) I have, I don't like the feel of the image. It's really lacking in a "real life" quality and is terribly stiff. A bit of a learning piece in terms of painting at any rate. (:

Can't say for sure or not I'll touch on this again.

Also! Another coming soon(er or later)



I usually paint characters rather large but this guy is from a group painting, I can't even recall the last group shot I even drew let alone painted besides this one so it's going to be a bit of a push P:
