I like a solid watercolour colour and shade it in with pencil crayon, must get back to the traditional soon.

@chrisaakins I'm plannin' on tossing together a book dummy at some point :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_closed_eyes:

@Braden-Hallett I was thinking my 7 year old would love this if it were a graphic novel. Sadly he judges very strongly on illustrations and will not even give a book a chance if he doesn’t like the look of it. This would pass his test for sure!

[braden H]

@Erin-Cortese That's good to hear

[braden H]

Callin' it done.

Now I just need to do this 60-70 more times.

Here’s the actual cow I was doing before @Braden-Hallett blew me away with his cow and chicken on a spaceship. The composition isn’t great because I was doing it just to practice some line and wash but it’s a cow, or actually it’s a bull....and a calf, a woodchuck, a baby woodchuck instead of a chicken, and he is drinking coffee not eating cheese, and they are on a farm not on a spaceship, and there are no banjos in sight, but other than that it’s just like Braden’s painting

Started out doodling The Dude in a meeting and decided I had to finish it.

Doesn't particularly look like Jeff Bridges but considering it was just for fun I'm okay with it.

[braden H]

@demotlj I require more cheese, banjos and spaceships.

Demand, in fact

[braden H]

DOOOOOOONE!

[Aaron_T]

@Braden-Hallett I love this and completely missed the origin story. So fun!

[demotlj]

@Braden-Hallett Stupendous! When will you be putting this up for sale?

[Coley]

@Braden-Hallett this.is.freaking.awesome!!!!!!!!

[Coley]

Just finished. Whew.

[Heather Boyd]

@Braden-Hallett

And here I thought it was done already. That cow is sooo proud of her utter.

@Coley
Really nice rim light on the characters!

[Su]

@Coley WOW! That's so good! Love your composition!

[Coley]

@MikeCañas thank you so much! It was a scary experiment LoL! I liked the way it came out though. Thanks again

[Coley]

@Su thank you!

@xin-li I like the watercolour coloured pencils combination too I usually do a light layer in watercolour first (usually a warm yellow) then fill in larger shapes in watercolour, and draw on top in coloured pencils. I really like my Derwent colorsoft coloured pencils - they blend nicely, and come in a lot of nice colours.

@Braden-Hallett Dear Professor Hallett, here is my completed assignment. Please excuse the rough work but I have been overwhelmed lately with homework from my “How to Ink” class with Dr. Hallet. He is a demanding teacher. I hope, however that you will find this acceptable. Sincerely, Harassed Student.
