Description Title: Coming to Life
Date Finished: August 12th, 2007
Medium: Colored Pencils
Time Taken: 4 Days

I really wanted to do a boy and girl anime piece so I decided to do something like this. The idea kind of just hit me when I was thinking of something to draw. I looked by my table and saw a deck of cards and I thought about working with that idea.

The theme of this piece is kind of a magical theme. As the cards fall, some of them come to life (mostly the reds, sorry about that). I thought that this was a good idea to purse so I did and it turned out okay, I'm not really happy with the outcome but I thought I should post it. My scanner doesn't really catch the pictures good so I had to edit it a lot in photoshop.

I thought that this would be an interesting idea so I decided to draw it. I'm sorry it didn't come out so good. I kind of went away from the digital art for a little while but I'll definately go back to it later. In the mean time, I hope you enjoy this piece!!

~Done with Crayola Colored Pencils, edited in Photoshop Elements 4.0

Thanks, I wanted to go in a different approach and put 2 people in the picture instead of one. I liked the idea but next time, I'll improve.

oo You did this with Crayola pencils, and went beyond its limits. How could it possibly be better? I shake my fish at you because you don't know how great your art really is!

Jay-Shadows In reply to SayWHAT-AnimeAngel [2007-08-16 00:57:57 +0000 UTC]

lol, thanks for your support but this was really more of an experimenting project, not professional. I might do a remake of it eventually which will be way better.

SayWHAT-AnimeAngel In reply to Jay-Shadows [2007-08-16 01:11:21 +0000 UTC]

It's still great. Though the remake might be fun to see.

Jay-Shadows In reply to SayWHAT-AnimeAngel [2007-08-16 02:38:14 +0000 UTC]

yea but I'm not sure whether to do a digital remake rather than traditional. Idk, I guess it'll be a surprise.

SayWHAT-AnimeAngel In reply to Jay-Shadows [2007-08-16 04:34:14 +0000 UTC]

You could try both. Now THAT would be cool to see. Traditional vs Digital. 888DDD
