Description Squeeeeeeee! I finally finished this. I started it after watching the movie for the second time and kept on having to put it off for one quiz or another or my internship triaining. Actually, I probabaly should have used it for incentive while studying "Just do some calc problems and THEN you can work on it" but more often I just blew off the studying and did this instead. Bad Smitty!

Anyway, I really am pretty happy with this, even though I had to literally tape it to my scanner in an attempt to smooth it out, which didn't do too much since it's still wrinkly as all get-out. I really should get watercolor paper. It's one of the rare times that I envisioned something in my head and the finished product actually resembled what I had originally imagined.

This of course is V from V for Vendetta, who I have a total nerd-crush on. I gotta say he's totally usurped Phantom of the Opera for the Most-Charmingly-Attractive-Crazy-Guy-in-a-Mask Throne. (Well, I guess Batman would be included in that group too huh? Damn, well then he shares it.)The title is from the song in the soundtrack of the same name that I listened to a bunch while working on this (and am currently listening to as I type this) The watercolors are a little homage to the graphic novel cover by David Lloyd.

Watercolor pencil and colored pencils. Touched up in photostudio.

PS-More V4V fanart on the way, for those who enjoy it!

Great use of tone. The touch of red is a great accent and give the piece life. Well done.

Holy cow, that's awesome. Excellent toning and powerful shading... Definitely a fav.
I also wanted to draw something from the movie after seeing it but I never had the inspiration. :<

Oh wow, I had no idea anyone would want a print of it! I wasn't planning on it, but I guess I didn't think anyone was interested! Hmm maybe I'll have to figure something out!

Gah....darn it...I wish I could draw this good....the only picture I've done that even comes close to this was a portrait drawing of "Josh Groban"....and that took WEEKS for me to do.....Bravo! Bravo! Encore! Encore! ^_^

Sin, tamarack1pines ^.^

P.S. i'm not an artist....i'm a poet....but in a way that is artistry in and of itself. lol
