Description "She was sweet, kind, funny, and sometimes, just plain silly to the point of being ridiculous. How could he not fall in love with her?"

Oh my goodness, a background! It was a fun background too, nice and easy I had fun with the fabric, though the scanner made it look horrid...I really wish scanners were better at capturing the subtle changes in the darkness of lead on paper >.>

Drew this while watching Pride and Prejudice, twas fun I got to listen to fancy English accents and witty dialogue, and draw a wonderfully silly Disney girl. What a combo!

I'm opening this one for critiques...please be nice, this is the first time I've dared try this feature!

Very nice! You're work with regular lead pencils (I'm guessing you used pencil) for shading is incredible! Also, the proportions of the character and the flow of her skirt are spot on! Great job with that!

Whisperwings In reply to Emerald-Procyon [2010-08-09 08:30:07 +0000 UTC]

Yup. Sometimes i'll use a graphite stick, and very rarely, charcoal... But generally, I work best with plain old #2 pencils. And mechanical pencils lately since that's what I can find, lol.

Thanks for the proportions! that's what i've been working on lately, so it's nice to know i'm improving

Emerald-Procyon In reply to Whisperwings [2010-08-17 04:09:48 +0000 UTC]

Heh... Yes, I'm guilty of sketching with mechanical pencils too. I'm telling you: it is the number one way to get on any art teacher's nerves. "That pencil is for TECHNICAL drawing! NOT PRACTICAL DRAWING!" At least that's what I've been told.

You're welcome! Isn't improving in a new art skill great? Especially a difficult one like anatomy or proportioning. It's a good feeling.

LOL good thing I don't take art classes then, eh? all those fancy tools, and you can get the exact same effect with a regular mechanical pencil. why spend all that money if you don't have to?

It is Now I just need to work more on hands and faces, then hair...than I should be good for a while

Emerald-Procyon In reply to Whisperwings [2010-08-17 05:07:05 +0000 UTC]

Exactly! And people wonder why they slap such high prices on their works when selling them; they need to make up for lost budget.

Hair's a breeze with the right tools. Hands are tricky though; so are feet. Good luck with that! I'm trying to work on different perspectives myself. Icky business that.

Lol, so so true...

Meh, it's just a matter of getting it to look right. Usually it's alright for me, but I know I can do better ^^ Feet are evil, and hands are...passable. References work wonders, lol.

She's gorgeous! It looks really beautiful.

Even if I think she must have half the intestines of normal people, but what Disney girl doesn't?

I was never sure if that was a backbone of a stick up her arse, lol. And wonky feet that mean they have to walk on their toes all the time...

That's what high heels are for!

When I was little, I always chewed on barbie feet. I wasn't much of head ripper-offer, but I did chew on the feet.

I was a head pulled offer. Never on purpose unless the barbie was reeeally ugly. Believe it or not, i had some of those, lol. And my cat liked to chew on their hands. it looks like they're some weird hand eating disease spreading through my barbie box o.O

Your very welcome and I wonder what kind of musical instrument Jane would likely play?

Whisperwings In reply to awash2002 [2010-08-09 00:27:24 +0000 UTC]

Hmm...I'd guess something like Clarinet or Oboe or something like that...still a more delicate instrument, but she's not shiny enough to play flute, lol.

I think she would look amazing playing a Clarinet I hope you draw her playing one one day
