Description
A scan of a photocopy, so some of it is lost, but you get the idea.I had to do another painting of a fairy tale. I couldn't decide on a fairy tale to do, so I made something up.
I really... don't know what the story is. I'll just say it's the princess and the pea.
I love how everything I try to draw turns into steampunk.

This is so gorgeous. I love the "We're about to have an adventure, just the two of us" feeling this picture and its composition gives. And your watercolouring and selective lineart is just awesome.

Really nice illustration, I like the yellow/purple combination you used; it really opens the space in the background.
"I love how everything I try to draw turns into steampunk" = best sentence ever

You know it's just fantastic. This picture is exactly, exactly, like that of the story I've been concocting for a year now. The two charaters walking are just like MY characters. It's really quite creepy. Thank you for some more inspiration. This is a lovely painting and you are a very talented artist. This is exceptional.
Tah for now

I remember you outlining this while watching superman. You didn't get very far, because we were making leud comments about Jimmy and Clark. And the red underwear.
I like the colouring. I like the style. awesome work as always.

I wasn't outlining it while watching Superman, it was when we were watching Eating Out.
Superman kept distracting me cause Clark was so hot.
Clark and Lex is like my new OTP.

They work, don't they? I bet Lex and Jimmy would fight to the death over Superman!
And over the perfect cowlick.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Damn straight they would!! I bet Jimmy will win with his rainbow rays.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lex would use his sexy baldness to reflect the rays. D:
It would be a battle worthy of epicness.
You should draw that.

I'm having a really hard time finding info of them. Or maybe I just lack bald lustre.
Contemporary just means they're alive, right? Because I can search art shows online and find schtuff.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. I guess so :/
Maybe I spelt their names wrong. I was kinda writing them down as the teacher was saying them, so I kept missing stuff.

WOW.
That is amazing! I bet his shiny head will reflect even the HEAT VISION RAY OR WHATEVER.
Epicness is right. It will the... The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny. (echo, echo, echo)

I love the way you use ink, the outlines are so fine. I really like the contrasting colours as well, fits in with the storytale ideas of everything being either light or shade.
Love steampunk. To death.
