YES! IT'S FINALLY DONE!!!!!

This is a picture of Eris, the Goddess of Chaos, as depicted in the Dreamworks movie "Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas" - which happens to be one of my favorite movies of all time, despite the fact that it is a children's movie and I am sixteen years old.

Eris is my favorite character, for obvious reasons (Chaos, Glorious Chaos!) Every time I watch the movie it makes me really want to draw her because she's just so flowey and fun. So one day I did. And here is the result!

I started this picture about nine months ago and I just finally finished it and I am so pumped!

I LOVE the way it came out. As with all of my pictures, it is much better on the actual piece of paper than on the image I uploaded because of my tragic lack of a scanner. But I still love it to death anyways!

One thing that lost some of its awesomeness in the transfer from paper to picture to computer to internet is the dark lines. You can't see one or two of the lines in her hair and several of the dark lines refelcted the light from the flash and the cealing lamp because it was drawin in pencil. That really bothers me, but I'll do my best to get over it.

The hardest part was her mouth. The experience of trying to draw Eris has shown me that angles are much easier (at least for me) to replicate than vague rounded lines with subtle curves. Her mouth does not have any angles at all in the shot I was using for reference and the expression of her mouth is made up of very subtle changes in the lines which are nearly impossible to recreate. It took me about thirty minutes to get the mouth right, and then I almost ruined it when I was shading the lips in.

But I love how it came out so much, so it's totally worth it.

I'm not even complaining so you can feel my pain, I'm just saying so you can appreciate how much I love the way it came out because I thought it was going to come out terrible because I was having such a hard time with the mouth, which is a key part of her expression.




So, anyways... I love it to death and I hope you do too.

By the way, IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN SINBAD YET THEN YOU MUST GO WATCH IT..... NOW!



Drawin in HB2 pencil.

Holy Crap! That looks... well... amazing! I can see why it took so long, and I LOVE it. It is freaking epic! I also agree that Sinbad is an amazing movie, and that everyone one should watch it, whether they be 6 or 16.

P.S: I finally logged on! It only took a bajillion months. I apologise.

Thanks you so much!

It only took me nine months because I did it in parts, and between each part I stopped for about three months. Just counting the time I actually spent working on it, it probably took me more like ten hours.

rofl! - "id say something but i am not kenan" - I haven't heard that in so long! It makes me so happy to see it again for some unexplainable reason!

It takes me longer than most people to finish a picture (especially when I'm using a reference) because I'm very rediculously ocd about every single line being EXACTLY how it's supposed to be. I do a lot of erasing when I draw my pictures.

Yays! I love Halloween parties! Not sure how I feel about scary movies though. Believe it or not, I've never actually seen one.

OMFG! This... is.... freaking.... amazing!!!!!!! It's Eris! I can see why it took forever, it came out absolutely wonderful. And I know who it is too. Thank you for letting me borrow teh movie, it really is amazing.

Peoples: I order you to watch the movie. It really is great. You will love it.

I love the shadowing first of all. It's epic. The mouth was well worth the efort. It looks perfect. She seems very angry, but that's why she's my favorite character too. Lol, random Pacmans.

I think I love it as much as you. It looks so cool! Amazing job Sarah. The most epic picture ever.

Thanks! I'm really glad you like it.

Thank you for watching the movie. I practically forced it on you. But I knew you would lolve it, because it IS amazing, and if you didn't like it then I would have had to shun you forever.

Yeah, the shadowing took me a long time, and the shadowing on her face is actually a little bit lighter than the shadowing everywhere else, which bothers me a little bit, but not enough to do anything about it.

She actually looked really weird when I had just finished doing the shadowing on her face because I hadn't shaded in her hair yet, so it was still white. Just immagine it. It looked odd.

This pisture is from the part at the end with the execution and the Book and the drama and the Eris, and so is why she looks angry. I'm tempted ot do another one with her looking malicious and happy.

I'm really gald you love it so much. I'll have to show you hte original version some time. (because - as it says in teh description - tis better)

Yes, you did force me. Then, when I try to keep it a few extra day, you accuse me of hijacking it!! I shun YOU! [link]

Yes yes! Make another! It too shall look amazing!
It is better in real life, but this still looks great! Let's face it, Eris freakin rocks!!
