Description These are several drawings (put together on Photoshop later) showing everything I can visually remember from a dream I had.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dream
For reasons I am unaware of, the earth was off orbit. We were going to have part or all of the earth sheered off by the sun. (Which was oddly roughly the same size as earth.) For some reason, the planet had decided Edd/Double D was best set for the task of saving the earth from said fate. When he said he would, Nazz told him how proud she was of him. But they had no time to waste, if he was going in space he had to get into shape. While the others came up with plans and helped pack, Edd was (unwillingly) forced to undergo tough athletic training.
I recall I had to help him pack, but I got distracted in my basement by a candy machine I had never seen before. When I opened it, I saw a tiny green humming bird. Out also came a disturbing bodyless bird. It was completely hallow and had no back to it's head too. Yet it was alive and curiously following me. (Probably because I was scared of it). On my stairs, I held some straw and watched it try to jump up. I questioned how that was possible when it had no muscle mass.
It was then that Edd came back, and told me to get back to work. (I think the bird also was killed by something? I don't remember.) Next thing I remember is Kevin telling me to make a chart on some planet alignment thing? (The picture at the top right of the space area.) It turned out pretty awesome.
Then there was the room where everyone got to say bye to Edd/Double D. Ed was especially unwilling to let Edd go. He kept telling him reasons Ed and Eddy needed him while crying his eyes out and hugging the guy tight. I think the only thing I said to Double D was "Good Luck" while he said "Thank you Danielle.".
Next thing I remember is him being in space (The middle Space picture.)
The bottom space picture was probably something Kevin showed me on a chart. I dunno. I have no idea if Edd was successful or if he made it back. I think my dream went off in a different direction or I woke up.

Making the Piece

I went with the whole loose coloring thing that I did here: [link] [link]
I didn't want to spend too much time on this and well... I wanted it to feel loose and dreamlike. Not all perfect and inside the lines. Besides, when I do this type of coloring, I can fully shade in the real drawings with pencil! You can see the pencil! It helps with shading here.
Dang it, I've drawn Double D in so many outfits. Like ten maybe? Someday I should just draw them all and upload 'em here.

Oh yes, I preceded to have very vivid and strange dreams the next three nights. Most of them were about my classmates though. I guess this is what happens when you try to get off your sleeping medicine. But I do love dreaming~

I AM SO SORRY I DREW NAZZ SO OFF MODEL. I thought I could do her right from my head. I was SADLY mistaken ;A; I promise I'll do better.

I think I had some end of the world dreams before. The first dream was someone telling me that the world is ending, and a UFO was revealed before I died. Second was when I was sent to Summer High School for the summer and later I was try to save something I'm trying to remember and then I was sent up to space with everything I love and have. I don't have my mate with me, so in the next end of the world dream maybe Edd, Eddy, or a random mate will come with me. I should have drawn one end of the world dream.

Holy cow...

I was so confused by this at first, thinking it was a reference to a movie or something, but now I see that it was all a dream and...

Freaking awesome dream! I'm kind of jealous, although it sounds freaky at some parts, like the part with the bird. Great drawing, by the way, and don't be too hard on yourself for drawing Nazz off-model, I just figured it was a style you were doing for her or something.

Sometimes I have really crazy dreams. But yeah...
I think there was also a creepy part where the bird was crushed to death. But I'm not sure how that happened. But it bugs me anyway.
I didn't have references with me... I should have looked some up.

Heh yeah Nazz looks a little off but she doesn't look bad. She just needs some eyelashes maybe and her chin comes out slightly more, but she still greats.

Kevin looks perfect,I'd personally like to see you draw him more, you look like you have a lot of fun with him for some reason.

I also love the soft shading on this, it looks so nice and glowy, heh. Beautiful work as always Dani.

BirchyEd In reply to Queen-Asante [2013-05-03 10:25:49 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... I need to just go get some references from the show for her and just draw her for awhile.

You are right though. I picked up Kevin right away. I think this is because he feels extremely similar to drawing Double D. The only big difference is his hat is easier, and his clothing is actually more obvious in the fabric too. That fabricyness works with my Jacob style extremely well.

>w< Yay! Loose color works. Thanks Asante.

Also....I just noticed you drew Nazz with eyebrows and Vanessa made this same mistake....but Nazz doesn't have visible eyebrows, her bangs cover them and act as her eye expression. The only time we see her eyebrows is in the movie when her head was shaved, just to point that out. I'm not perfect at Nazz, either, she's actually very hard for me but I do plan on practicing her more myself. Those refs on FB might help, even though most of them were from the movie. I'm sorry I don't really have earlier style refs but I personally prefer the later style from the later seasons, it was much more ''loose'' than the first couple seasons, the first couple seasons were kinda stiff in my opinion, the later seasons had more funky poses and expressions. So if you want you could take a look at the refs I posted on FB although sadly there weren't too many on Nazz, because she's such a minor character.

And yup Kev comes pretty easy for me too, he's a lot of fun.

And no probs Dani, keep up the good work.

Ahhhh right! Right! good point. I have another drawing of Nazz I did earlier XD I'll make some changes to it before I do anything.

Thanks so much. And yes, I often reference from seasons 3 and up. Just one and two are just... two stiff for me too.

Yeah I have them sometimes too. But I don't have anywhere near as many of 'em as I do Fairy Foxes, or pure random, or Sonic the Hedgehog, or Dreams about People I know. The ones about people I know are strongest.

BirchyEd In reply to felinemon [2013-05-03 10:28:41 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! They are usually composed of my most creative thought process. I can even compose detailed music in my head when I'm half awake half asleep. Sadly if I wake up any more, I'll loose it. Not to mention I can't write in music. When I wake up in the morning I can't remember anything about the song.
