A Brush of Talent

Alrighty, I decided to try my hand at sketching that same picture one more time...

except this time it's a close-up of Rachael Henley, with Andrew Adamson and Noah Huntley around her. And I used my digital camera this time :cool:

This is it before I put faces on them...because I was torn between leaving it like that, or attempting the faces and possibly run the risk of screwing it up.

But, in the end I decided to try...

And while I'm still not totally happy, I think this is the very smallest improvement from last time. I have a particularly hard time with Andrew's face in this pic because his smile is a little strange and his eyes are incredibly hard to draw.

Still all wonderful! :D

Now I'm drawing the younger pevensies...
I have finished Susan, and I am very happy with it, but I think I'll wait until I'm done with all four before I post..or at least finish Lucy.

10thingy is a commonly used little phrase people type when they don't have a post that is long enough--if you don't use at least 10 characters (letters or whatever) you can't post.. so people fill up the extra characters by posting 10thingy :)

sorry! i just wanted to fit in lol

besides, (you're 13 right?) i don't think i was whipping out replica representations of landscapes round that age either. haha i used to draw me as a rocket power cartoon :p hehe those were terrible, i just found em last week when i cleaned out my closet

besides, art is like what i need to live off of oncei graduate :p, i think it's fantastic for anyone to do on the side and enjoy it! my sisters hate art which upsets me cause its really a fun and creative thing to do.

Here is that sketch I was working on... it's a bad picture, since I couldn't take it with my digital camera, and I don't have a scanner..but here it is anyways.

I think you can guess who these people are..

I'm not extremely happy with it, but I think it's okay if you don't pay too much attention to the faces. The only face I really like is Rachael Henley's. If anyone has tips or advice for me, I'd welcome it!

10thingy i'm so speechless
 
You've all been talking a lot but where are the pictures? Don't be shy!
It doesn't have to be Narnia either, if you're good at wildlife, nature, or anything else! :D I have a lot of nature-based sketches, especially working off of photgraphs in books. I have trouble with my new acrylics, however...any advice on blending or reference books?
