It's all go.....
Busy busy busy. Two more down and possibly three or four to go. Next is Badger, then the optimist in me will probably do Zoe, Book and then maybe another Mal., just in case there are any extra guests (Ok so Gina Torres is a very long shot but she is missing from the BDH line up). I can't think Summer will be there although I'd like to do another perhaps from Serenity.
The bad news is my eyesight is definitely getting worse. I think come October I will need to invest in a pair just for close work because I am really struggling with the fine detail *sigh* - on the upside though you can't see the wrinkles developing so clearly.
Art tales from Italy I am also going to make a new site of just 'normal' art that I can pimp out to the non fandom folks (Buffy and Angel Art is just a little too scary methinks ) Possibly some local landscapes that I can sell around Christmas. That's the plan anyway. It's strange as I met an expat artist on the train back from Florence and we struck up a conversation.
She has been there for years and has a studio in Florence and was very keen for me to keep in touch - she asked me if I was in the 'art world' and I said no, which then had to be retracted as hubs said 'you tell the biggest lies' - thanks sweetie..... I would have given her my card but I thought that the site might be a touch too much. It's not that I am ashamed it is just that I couldn't face all the explanations about fandom, whedonverse blah blah after a long day in Florence. I do have her site address and email so I may just contact her anyway and see if it puts her off at all. Pic spam will come soon plus some other snippets of the trip
I so need some 'art' icons.
ETA I have reworked Simons skintones and 12oclock stubble - he looked like Desperate Dan about to launch into a cowpie. Slightly better I think.

btw, what materials do you use to make your pictures?

For these I have used water soluble pencils (Caran D'Ache) on pastel paper, unfortunately my useless Mustek scanner washes alot of the colour out and I have to alter the levels, the originals look a little better.

and ahhh i see, cause looking at it, i think pencils, but it looks so seemless that i thought, this cant be regular pencils lol
