(pens on paper, A4)
My first real post with felt tip pens, so yay me I guess. It's always nice to use something other than watercolours or pastel. No apologies for the patchy colour, I just started using Alpha Markers and I don't know how to control the colours yet. They are godly pens, however.
This was the first thing that immediately sprung to mind on seeing the word "bait". And because I like to show you how lame my first sketch is, here it is in all it's awful shaky pencil, testing the pen colour because the indicator cap is usually different glory:
Update: A very (belated) Happy New Year!
This is a repost, I originally drew and posted this back on 11th October last year, then pulled it into drafts a few weeks later as the other "competing" half wasn't ready (i.e., didn't start). I don't really know if she'll ever get around to illustrating the word *HINT HINT :P*, and leaving this in a state of limbo is kind of a waste, so I decided that this should be the first post of the new year.
I should have had a whole load of other things to post that I was expecting to do over the holidays, but that didn't really pan out too well. I did some things but I actually had more fun with my new camera than I did with pencil and paper. Fortunately that means a bunch of reference photos for future use. I might post some photos too. But first thing's first, I have to open a FB page. I've been reluctant to do so for a while but I guess now's as good a time as any...
Happy new Year again! :)
Update 2: Well wouldn't you believe it, soon after reposting this Kinga Bee only went and did the damn thing! It only took 4 months, 3 reposts and some subtle prodding to get it done, hehe. Complimentary link-back here (clicky).
To-do: comment on her picture. Better do it later, I'm still jetlagged, it's 4:30am and my brain is lugaw.

ReplyDeleteHey now, no need to go Olde English on me! When you said there was no strict time limit to finish and I said "not 1 year but not 1 day either" I thought you were aiming for the former :P
