I made some progress on my dress up drawing. I’m thinking of making grandma‘s hair curlers have a silhouette of Princess Leia buns. Lol.

Class: Barbarian

Mine turned out less barbaric and more like she could work in the kitchen--but you never know...lol.
This was definately fun to make!

WIP Rework February "Love" I have more work in grey scale before moving forward.

[avfarrar]

'Cause when it's who you've got...

[burvantill]

@Braden-Hallett . No. I was just thinking it might lend to the theme. She’s just being a parent. So, should I not?

[burvantill]

@Braden-Hallett too cool

[burvantill]

@avfarrar nice!

[Perrij]

@avfarrar and @Braden-Hallett I want to see these DnD characters get together :B

And i have a couple to throw into the mix!!

[evilrobot]

Mayor McCheese as George Washington

[avfarrar]

@Perrij Awww yeah! Those are great! That guy's expression is priceless. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

[avfarrar]

@Perrij Love this so much!
And of course "Lord of the Rings" is certainly my favorite fantasy...

Relaxed a bit and colored my daily sketches from yesterday and today.
They are prompts from Kick in the creatives animal art challenge for August. If you are ever looking for a new challenge they have a TON.

I'm gonna put this one away for a few days and then come back to it. Happy so far, though

I've been working on a sticker for my step-daughter of her late dog (shown below). I'm probably going to reposition the dog a little, though, since it's primary purpose is to decorate her cell phone case. Right now it's a 3/4 view of the body, and I think I'm going to adjust it so it's looking from straight on (if that makes sense). I might work on the prompt this month, too, but I need to think of what to draw for it.

[evilrobot]

Work in progress on this. Think I need to get rid of the moon and put it out out of view where it's at right now wouldn't make the light in the direction I put on the character

Got a rare opportunity to draw at work...creating a series of women in Arizona history for some note cards. Trying my hand at doing it in a Wall Street Journal-esque hedcut style:

Messed up a lot on this first one, but feel like now I know what I need to do to fix the patterns going forward. Helps that these illustrations will only be about 3" square when printed!

WIP rework, I like the colours, space, and the atmosphere those edges lols. Before and after (wip). I just noticed a mistake haha.

@burvantill Thank you!
I think what I would like to do differently next time is to don't be afraid and ask for bigger timeframe. Im on a tight deadline with the fairy book and also on a tight deadline with my own project (another book, also will be published by a publisher, so I'm under contract there too). I'm now in a situation where there's a possibility I will not be able to deliver on time one of those two projects. And I have few other things I would love to get done. And I won't. Because there's no time. I have my nose buried deep in paper drawing fairies, trying to also squeeze in some monkeys (for the other book), and regretting I was to shy to ask for more time in a first place... Well, that's how I learn, I guess.
BUT - I'm still happy and grateful I have work. Of course.
