Description While we were packing for our move last year, I came across quite a few stacks of ~drowtales 's old drawings. I stored all of these away, with exception of a few inked ones (2 to 4 years old) that I kept for myself. If just to color with copics, one day

This one I had put aside for quite a long time. She was originally drawn to be a grown-up Ariel in a robe, but I wanted to use a different skin tone. I'm not used to coloring large drawings with copics, especially when there's large areas of solid color! When you can't avoid a streaky line, better off working as if you intended it.

That's really beautiful. You did very well with those folds on her dress.

Gah, every time I look at it I find something new. Just beautiful, can't use "plain beautiful" here because it's not plain. ^^

you burden me with such high expectations XD but with such weight, it can only make me want to do better.

Awww, burdening you is not what we want.

Do rest sometimes, eat some chocolate cookies and enjoy the life. So you would have energy for things and people you love.

WOOw!! This is sooo sweet, I love that clothing and her hair. I don't know how you came up with the white outlines, but it works perfectly!

chocolate-rebel In reply to Graveyard-Keeper [2010-03-25 05:18:33 +0000 UTC]

the fine white lines are from a white gel pen after the white gel dries, I shade it slightly with the markers so that it blends with the folds in the clothing. it works out okay
