Description
Melonhead from The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy by Tim BurtonInk and posca on Moleskine
"There once was a morose Melonhead,
who sat there all day
and wished he were dead
But you should be careful
about the things you wish.
Because the last thing he heard
was a deafening squish"

Aside from the fact that the colour of green was a few shades too dark, this is otherwise a wonderful reproduction of Burton's original piece. The spindly arms and legs, the head much too large for the body, and of course the large, haunted eyes are all spot on with Burton's original image. In fact, it was rather refreshing to not only see something new (you don't see too many pictures of Melonhead) but something that was actually recognizeable (I can't tell you how many pictures of jack and Sally where you could hardly tell who it was meant to be) Overall, well done. Kudos!

Wow thank you very much for your critique!!
I know the green is a little too dark, but I wanted it that way. I didn't want a pure copy, I wanted to add my "touch". I have lots of migraines and I thought this drawing was perfect to express how I felt
