so lovely!!! Would you do more such artwork with these characters in the future? Do it, please.
I enjoy it. And I think my five-year-old niece will be a great fan of it. She is so crazy about little fairys

I still have another illustration rough that wasn't accepted for the poem. The little fairy stands under a dandylion and watches the catapillar walk over her shoe. When I have the time and I know how I want to finish it, I'll work on it and post it when it's finished.

Thanks for the comment!

oooooooohhhh ohh dear it looks so depressed! X3 You've captured the moment beautifully :3 The expressions of your fairy girl and the mouse just make me smile X3 I think I'd react the same way if I saw the fuzzy thing trudge across my path X3 I was half expecting her to go up to the caterpillar and ask if it wanted to play

hmm, the girl's face in panel 4 seems a bit odd tho.

Her pose is the same as in the first one so, other than the expression on her face, what's odd about it?

Like your Avatar!

ya, just her face, i dunno, maybe it's coloured a bit darker than in the rest of the panels.

thanks!

I love your storyboard work. It leaves a lot to the imagination of the viewer. Great work and I love the fairy's expression in the last pose.
