Description In summer 2005 i drew an illustration called Bloody Mary.
In Late Autumn at 6:30pm 2007, i finished it.

I can not tell you how happy i am right at this moment to have finally finished this piece. i mean, i went back and forth and different aspects of this, almost wanted to give up on it. especially because of noses. all to know this week from co-workers, that it was fine all this time.
anywho, i stayed late after work to finish this week and it really paid off.

I hope you enjoy it, i really really really do.

Comments and Fav's much appreciated!

Time: Too many months to count.

thank you. I think most people were afraid of this story at one point during their childhood.

I absolutely love the textures and rich colors! Not to mention the grotesque perspective of her hand! Absolutely lovely!

lol..thanks. I'm glad people like the perspective of that hand. I was afraid it wouldn't work as well as it did in my head.

Elmihy In reply to lstjules [2010-10-03 03:20:39 +0000 UTC]

I definitely sympathize there... I've drawn poses with the hand outstretched a couple of times and foreshortening's such a pain. The way you did it really contributes to the feeling of the drawing, though. ^^

lstjules In reply to Elmihy [2010-10-03 03:44:09 +0000 UTC]

thanks. yeah, I know. the only other time I can think of that I did something with lots of foreshortening was my western face-off animation years ago.

i hate to be a critic but the "1" thing i don't like about his picture is that well the girl in blue doesn't look all that scared

renluva In reply to lstjules [2008-05-21 02:57:43 +0000 UTC]

but otherwise it turned out really good! i love the colors! they don't clash like mine do whenever i color and man do i suck at coloring! so what if there's one faulty detail in a picture so long as everything else is awesome

lstjules In reply to renluva [2008-05-21 03:25:40 +0000 UTC]

i'm a perfectionist...so if i don't like one thing on a picture, i generally don't like the entire thing. But i've got to move on. I like the full size better too, there's more details and you see much more into the picture. I might edit the picture later, but not at the moment

me and my friend's never believed in bloody mary and 1 of my friends (who'd never heard of bloody mary) invited a large group of my friends and i and she also invited this 6 year old over BLECH! (i hate little kids) we told them the story of bloody mary and they FREAKED! when we forced them 2 go in2 the bathroom (the only room with a mirror) we pressed up against the door and said we would't let them out until they did it

Very nice! I remember the first time I heard that legend... We were a big group of people, and none of us had the guts to actually try saying "bloody Mary" in front of the mirror once, let alone three times.

lstjules In reply to AniDragon [2007-11-24 16:38:20 +0000 UTC]

we did it once when we were young, with also a group of people, i think we got to 2 and then freaked out by running out of the room. i do remember one running out of the room after 1
