Romancing the rose

Posted Jan 30, 2018, 10:15:23 AM UTC

I was reqested to draw my character and my friend's character being romantic together. Since the two of them haven't had a romantic moment together yet, I decided to go for a chivilrous approach with a kiss on the hand <3

Oh- and this is my second successful water colour picture. Yay me for getting the correct paper and not ruining everything finally :D

Characters:- Lucyndra Wintrish owned by Yerin

Silvyr Rose / Mordel Mandravius owned by me :)

  Second successful one ^^; I've done some before this, but the materials betrayed me XD Hah ^^; There was a lot of bleeding and bad use of techniques. Basically, I screwed up a lot, was told I was using the wrong paper, and went OH and suddenly the planets realigned XD
  
  Thank you though I guess me screwing up a lot helped me learn a few things so that when I had the right materials, it didn't mess it up XD

  That's a good point. Good materials make all the difference, but sometimes mistakes are the best teachers. XD

  Yeah- Part of me needs to be ok with making mistakes, but I don't want those mistakes to be out of my control

  I totally understand what you mean. Easier to learn from them if you know what you did. XD

  Totally Cause I'm using the right materials, and stuff is workign better, I'm not starting to discover things I could do better. I got an Olive colour a week ago, and I'm not mixing better skin tones for my character (he's meant to be olive- not pink), and I think with a bit of practice, I'll train my eye on how to mix the colours right. I want to sort that out before I go too far into techniques.
