===========================

Well... been working on this on and off for about a month or so. Between work and school I dont have much free time to paint anymore *is sad* I suppose it's not very..... good. I was really into when i first started but it's grown stale to me. I think my foliage and beginning to incorporate backgrounds is good, but I think it seems stiff since i'm still doing basic anatomical positions with very little perspective and dynamics.

I enjoy painting the queen a lot, but the owl was certainly a break from people She's strolling along in the royal gardens and is so haughty that she even insists the wildlife kiss her by command and loyalty.

I drew the pencil sketch (which was like a 3x4inch D:< ) in England two years ago. I was making fun of the queen of England even though the character is quite the opposite of her attitude. This is by NO MEANS the red queen!! I was going to paint her in white but that was too much like Queen Elizabeth's actual dress when she took to the thrown and i've never seen a queen in blue or green or any other color for that matter

anyways, i hope you like it. I am going to start a poster that has Red Rider and her wolf-dog in it again. This time there will be a better composition and landscape in the background hopefully once i finish that, i will start working on more dynamic and flowing images.

I know that pain of disliking something part way into it but pushing to finish it anyway. That doesn't seem apparent in this, though. I think it's excellent. You blended that realism and stylized look in such a wonderful way and paid attention to so much. Really professional looking.

thanks you! (again ) This was a really fun painting. I spent so much time on that nose Like many say, she looks like the red queen I was originally going to be her in white, but I realized the Queen of England was in a white dress when she became queen ha

I'm one of the few that didn't really get struck with the Red Queen image. Maybe the idea through the style but this stood out on its own for me.

Poor Queen - she could have been so happy, if there wasn't any complications during her last plastic surgery...

Her face and the grumpy owl are simply perfect.

Yay! Haha, you've got that time to look forward to

Ahhh, ahsjfbjh, it'll be so awesome! You're colouring is gorgeous, hmm, I guess closer to the time we can decide! But it'd be cool to do someting that involves an OC from both of us Or whatever we feel inspired to do at the time!

I love Theo I don't have any characters that look like they'd be from her world- they are all marine creatures

I have this girl [link] that i did ages ago. It'd be fun to reinvent her and integrate her with a moth character

SeharJH In reply to MMWoodcock [2013-03-26 13:16:50 +0000 UTC]

Ahh it'd be cool if we got any of your characters meeting Theo! Whether that be a marine creature or a lil fairy! We'll make it work ;D

omigoshhsbjhdvsjhd I'd love to draw one of your characters ;A; Maybe I could lineart with a bit of shading and you can colour/bg since you do that so freaking well OTL asdajs or whatever we feel like doing It'd be so fun 8DDD

This is fantastic. I would love to see the view from the owl's perspective. I think it'd be way interesting.
Anyway, lovely work.

oh my... hmm with her nose that large poor bird. He can probably see her brains.

thanks

Amani-Famana In reply to MMWoodcock [2013-03-25 00:46:25 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking more like he'd see a pointy headed ghoul with painted lips (her nostrils being the eyes). But, brains are always good.

You're welcome.
