Description This is Hel the Queen of the Norse Underworld, as inspired by the book Runemarks by Joanne Harris. A fantastic book and I cant wait for the sequel.
Anyways, it was done watercolour and mesaures 9x7cm, nice and petit.
I likedthe idea of her two sides being stiched together, hence the stiched line down the middle. The red parts on her dead side are the muscle showing through tears in her skin.
Enjoy!
I may do one of Loki and Maddy soon for those who know of them.

She defo needs some form of surgery on tha face, but then I guess she wouldnt fit in Hel.

What an awesome drawing of Hel! O.O
I always fail badly at drawing her and am really impressed now. *-* *fave*
I like expecially how you did the eyes.

Runemarks is an awesome book, I read it more than one time. I think I'm in a hype currently... (currently=since last summer. XD I just can't get away from it...

I hope, you'll do Maddy and Loki next. <3

Thank you so much!
I must say I too like her eyes the most, especially the dead one!
I really loved Runemarks and it really touched me in places, and i felt so sorry for Hel, she seemed so lonely.
So after my art exam, im hoping to do Maddy and Loki as i said before, and then possibly do a collective picture of the Vanir, Aesir and the folk. Especially Ethelberta, she is one of my fave characters bless her. And dont forget Fat Lizzy!

Anyways, thanks for the comment and fave!

Yeah Ethelberta was REALLY awesome!
I just loved the way her character changed in the story.
I also felt sorry for Hel, I think she's the most depressed character in the story.
I can't wait to see your drawings of Loki and Maddy.
By the way, you might think that's typical for girls to think so, but I think Maddy and Loki would make a quite nice couple.
Sooo cute, even though the age-difference is too huge to make it happen. XD
...
Don't kill me. °_°

I totally agree with Maddy and Loki as a couple! They would be so good together but aren't they semi related through Odin in some weird way?
Still it would make for a nice romance.
I so want to do Ethelberta now aswell!
Cant wait till i get some super free time, its gunna be fun!

I don't get what you meant with Odin... XD
Maybe because my english isn't so good.
but I'm totally sold on that pairing, no matter what.

XD you're also busy with school?

I wouldn't have known your were not English if you didn't tell me, your grammar is really good, and the spelling has been always correct!

And yeah, i have an art exam, no writing thank goodness, i have 15 hours to produce a really good piece of art. Its not too bad, but it can be quite stressful at times!

Well, see you soon!

Really?! O__o
yosh, that's cool.
Thanks.
But I surely sound like a really uneducated english-speaking person. XD
In german I am so good with words, but in english it's just... blargh! (you see? XD)

I'm freakin jealous now! XD
We never had exams in art.
But know I do not mind it anymore, since I'm studying fashion-design right now. Thehe.

Be proud of your english!

XD At the moment I am doing no good job...
I'm always a little too lazy and because I'm the youngest and act way more immature than the other they do not really take me for full. They do not treat me bad or something, but look down on me.
I do not like that. XD

What the Hel??? X_X
That sounds pretty cool.
Thank you.
...You aren't trying to trick me, are you? XD

Spanish?! °_____°
Awesome.
Spanish always seems so difficult to me.
I'm always tempted to learn a third language. At first I thought about learning spanish, but I think I'll try french first. XD That'll be sooooo fun... *cough*
