Description

Aveline distracts Charlie a lot from his songwriting, but he doesn’t seem to mind

I’m changing Aveline’s design a bit and giving her long hair (she pins it up to look like a bob) because I like the long-haired look a lot ^_^

Aww! Already shipping these two hard! I love their cute pose and the golden light spilling onto them is great. I really love the background detail here, the posters are incredibly accurate to the period- I'm impressed! Plus, I'm jealous of how shiny Aveline's hair is!

Heehee!  I'm glad! ^_^  I doodled this up in my sketchbook and was so pleased with how they turned out, I HAD to make it all nice and pretty in photoshop!


Thanks!  To be honest, I snagged the posters off the internet and pasted them around in the background--ain't no one got time to draw up period accurate posters! lol


She's got a great hair routine that only fictional characters can pull off

I love the posters in the background! They really set the scene and tone of Charlie's world as it were, but I love the way you draw wrinkles in pants even more. I need me some of that

Thank you!  I was going to actually leave the walls blank, but when I saw how empty it looked I figured I might as well go the extra effort and find some posters to slap in there to add to the setting.


Sneak Drawing people's clothes in public helps, but I figured out a trick for pants legs at the knees where you just do this and it looks natural

Maaan that doesn't look like an easy pose to do! D8 Great job! It's so relaxed and warm- and the lighting really helps.

....she's kind of like a cat, isn't she? He's not paying attention to her so she sits on his work and gets in his face. XDD

Thank you!!  What was more surprising is that I didn't have to thumbnail it before drawing them! :0  It's one of my favorite pieces of this year (I sort of want to buy my own print of it just because I like it that much lolll)


HAHA!  Oh my gosh that's so trueee! XD

I don't know if it's just me or if those sheets of paper have coffee stings on them.

LadyPep In reply to Sketchman147 [2018-12-04 21:19:13 +0000 UTC]

Those are indeed coffee stains!  Charlie is a coffee addict, so every piece of paper he comes into contact with gets marked by coffee. lol

That's his stamp of approval which means he owns the songs he writes before sending them off to record studios.
