Description yesterday i got a wonderful package of magic from which included a bunch of new prismacolors and so i had to drop everything i wasn't actually doing anyways and make her something with them.

half way through coloring i remembered my scanner can't really differentiate between shades of red. i just shaded a lot and hoped it might pick up on it. it didn't. i tried to fix it in photoshop but couldn't really manage. so i'll just have to do something better some time. hoho.

anyways. this is Lyndz's character Colleen, who is friends with Duncan. yes, everyone is aware that not all irish people are redheads and or have freckles thanks for the newsflash, no one cares. i don't know if she's better or worse at dealing with the lovies than Duncan is (i'm assuming a wee bit worse) and i lost my train of thought as to where i was going with that. oh well. colleen has lovies is the point. i liked her eyes alright until i ruined them with the like crazy sasha rings in them and now they look weird. it seemed like a good idea at the time. i'm sure by tommorow i won't even be able to look at this picture.

Colleen belongs to , art's mine, no taking please thanks. inked w/ a micron, on bristol board for once! i always forget how nice bristol board is to work with but i'm too cheap to buy it often. colored w/ prismacolors. faving w/o commenting is boo and all that jazz. enjoy.

do you know how to read? i'm assuming you understand basic words and letters since you typed a comment, but the comment itself makes me wonder if you actually know how to look at and process words.

That's an awesome expression. I love the huge eyes and the slight cartoony-ish style to it. Her eyes look so shiny and sparkly. The pouty lip is adorable.

Really nice, I love how when you do headshots, you use the lines of the shirt as a border to where it ends, so it doesn't look like it sort of fades off into nothing. Just a small detail, but I like it. The hair shape here is especially lovely as well.

Man you are really spoiled if people start sending you Prisma markers through the mail XD. j/k

I kinda Sasha ring in her eyes, it gives more detail and some texture to her expression. Speaking of which, i love that face lol. Not just the freakles but her little nose and how you have her eyes looking up like she just doesn't care.

For teh scanner there is a way to fix it. Just take it out to a hard concrete floor. Take a hammer and start beating the thing. After you've assembled the bits and pieces together, show the remains to your parents and tell them: "It broke, I need a new one."

Now she is quite a beauty there, I dun care if "not all Irish are redheads" She's a fantastic example for redheads everywhere. ^^

Beautiful coloring. As for the scan raping it's colors, I think it looks pretty good, I can see alot of different reds in there, I really like how you used yellow/orange to highlight. ^^

i have to put the 'not all irish are redheads w/ freckles' thing in there half the time cause for some reason people seem to feel the need to flip out and point it out.

izartist In reply to sashamya [2007-10-06 16:47:14 +0000 UTC]

Haha, stereotyping is annoying sometimes, but as I can plainly see here, you bring out the beauty and huggableness (is that even a word?) in the character. And regardless of whether or not all Irish have red hair among other things or not, I still find this to be a fantastic piece of art. ^^

I usually pay no heed to what the cliche or stereotype of a characters species/race/shape/ect ect is anyway, I go for a character that pleases me, and if said character is full of cliche, then so be it as long as they are a lovable character.

sashamya In reply to izartist [2007-10-06 16:56:36 +0000 UTC]

well, there are 3 of us who each have one prominent irish char who's redheaded and freckly. we all have other irishes that arn't redheaded or freckly but people don't seem to pay attention to those and just flip out when the redheads are drawn.

that aside redhair and freckles is awesome so more people should have them anyways.

izartist In reply to sashamya [2007-10-06 17:17:00 +0000 UTC]

YES! More redheaded freckle bearers for the win!

I do like a good redhead, and freckles are a big plus for me, with glasses. ^^

ANYhoo... probably tmi. XD

Aww all scanners are so evil about reds tho, they really are! She's been all purdyfied here with lipstick and tamed hair and such, I don't think she knows what to do. Especially if Cairn starts givin her compliments. D: Perhaps get drunk later and try to forget it.

maybe her lip is just pink from her biting it in confusion over the love feelings within her. then duncan laughed at her. and pointed. and there was payback.

it's the boys' faults. they should just buy them drinks until they are calm. and by calm i mean passed out.

if anything if they do that they'll have forgotten all about chasings the night before by waking up to an possible other awkward situations in the morning.
