One version of many...until i'm completely happy with the results. I'm still not all happy with how the color ended up. So there's some good chances i'll make another one.
I used watercolor. Tell watcha think...

 Mallie3Total Posts: 1450Mar 6, 2006 8:09 pmOOO! I was wondering when you were going to get this one done! I looks pretty good! I like the color of the wings. and I like the colors and how they kinda blend with the next. Very nice job. I love her body position. Nice detail. Great work! ---

Mallie3 (Reply)Total Posts: 1450Mar 11, 2006 2:52 pmWell good it's always really good to go back and see what you can do with it. Sometimes I find myself doing to much to it and sometimes I find myself doing just enough. So be carful because this is beautiful! ---

Perplexity (Reply)Total Posts: 172Mar 18, 2006 8:04 amWatercolors and fairies seem to go hand in hand for some reason. I guess the delicate, otherwordly effect you can acheive with watercolors matches the fairy's character? --- |

Lilimayhem (Reply)Total Posts: 1420Apr 16, 2006 5:50 amThanks mucho! I'm lucky i have friends who love to pose for me, so it's a bit more easier when i get to see what i have in my head. For the watercolor, i'm slowly getting the hang of it, i try ,try, try,try and try again. And ruin lots of paper... --- Dont take life too seriously, you're gonna die anyway... |

 DollmakerTotal Posts: 2445May 2, 2006 6:40 pmOoh, I'm loving this pic, too. The neck seems kinda thick, though. Also, I understand that you're still getting the hang of watercolors (I'm not that good with them, myself.) but perhaps you could try giving the wings a more transparent look to them? I think that would add a very nice effect. --- |
