Bird Finished At Last

"Fiery Sky"
5.5 in x 5.5 in
Colored Pencil and Water Color on Bristol vellum

Sweet everything on this planet, I finally finished it!!! The feathers are terrible, I even cut part of it off because I had messed them up so bad. Also, I finally found out that using masking tape to remove pencil does work on this paper, it was a HUGE life saver. Well sort of I guess. I didn't want to abandon this, just took me awhile to finally quit dreading the inevitable and just do it. If I ever get the urge to do a bird again, it will be awhile, and I will definitely do a feather study first.

All The Things I Haven't Finished

Ever since I started this job as a stocker, I haven't made much time for any art as I am always tired when I get home. It doesn't help that the holiday season is coming up and it means a larger work load there too. What time I do make isn't much, and this is what I have so far..

This is as far as I have gotten on the eagle. The poor thing has been sitting at this stage for over a month now :(

I started on one mini painting, this is a crappy picture of it. You can't really see that the paint is shiny but it is and that is because it's nail polish. I came up with the idea when I realized I have all these polishes I don't like, won't use and didn't want to just throw out. Re-purposing sounded good.

This however is finished, was finished about a month ago. My first pony that is a crossover from Monster Rancher. I absolutely love the games, and didn't see anyone else doing crossovers with them. I want to do more, but there are a lot of things I want to do and not enough time to do them all at once. Maybe in a month I'll have a little more :/

New Angle

So, I have been eye balling the My Little Pony cartoon style for awhile now. I love the show (yes I watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) and I think the animation style is just adorable. I figure it, that I needed some inspiration to keep drawing and why not start something new. Also, there are all kinds of Pony crossovers, and those fascinate me the most. I'm trying my hand at my own crossovers.

As for this bird of mine...

Holy Batman, yes I finally started it! This darn thing makes me so nervous, this here is almost fours hours and that is all the farther I got. I was thinking of another bird after this but I don't know now. :D
