As long as there was no piss or mustard on it, I'd hang this on my wall. I like Toggenburgs and Nubians mostly. I just bought the best jar of mustard ever. It's President's Choice le Choix de Président dijon (we have to say everything twice here--once in English and once in Quebecois--which you'll already know if you watched any of the Vancouver Olympics) It's as hot as wasabi. But you can only get it at The Super Store out west or Loblaw's down east.

I love that Inglehoffer Sweet Hot mustard..that stuff is soo good...but it will definitely scorch your sinuses if you get to much at one time...my husband took me to this place one time on our way back from Key west..it was in Jensen Beach called Mrs. Peters smoked fish..and they had the best honey wasabi mustard dip I have ever eaten..I keep telling him we need to go back there because their fish is really good too.

Master Copy #1 - Josh Kirby

mursku (Feb 16, 2010)

i was thinking that i might learn more from copying some great paintings instead of fotos.
For my first one, i chose one of my favorite artists, Josh Kirby, to copy from. He was a really great artist, but its a bit difficult to find a good painting from him to copy, as he tended to do those really detailed paintings (especially on the Discworld books)
for reference i chose one of his simpler paintings: http://andokai.blog.cz/0608/josh-kirby

A "merman"...."lol"!!

firecracker (Feb 25, 2010)

I just felt like trying a "merman" draw.....it's something a little different from the usual "mermaid" draws...."lol"! I still need to work on this more.....I'm still not satisfied with it. I don't know how that "merman" thinks he is going to battle that huge ugly fish with that spear....I think he is gonna end up as "lunch" for that fish....."lolz"....:) I'm posting this as "finished", cuz I don't feel like working on it anymore at this time.....but I do plan on finishing it later.....I just feel like starting on something different to draw....this one took me quite awhile to draw, and I'm not in the mood to do anymore to it right now.....thanks for all of your comments....I will finish this later.....:)

trying to make the wings more part of her body.. lightened the face, it was too dark. and changed the eyes to green, you know, for the contrast.. got rid of the horns for now.. made the tail point towards the viewer. i think its a bit better now, but it might look even better if the tail rested on top of her legs. i'll try that later... got rid of the props, but now i don't know what to put there instead. or should i just forget the whole prop idea?... maybe i should just try out the classic (small) devils horns on her forehead?

Layne - thanks :D
yeah, i too thought the wings should stay on. i think they more effectively sell the idea that she's some kinda demon that way :)

Flubbles (Feb 27, 2010)

I think the horns on the forehead would be a good idea, and instead of a sword you could go with a whip.

elly (Feb 27, 2010)

Her face reminds me of some Ben 10 characters...love the lighting =)

have anybody else noticed that it takes a lot longer to upload the drawings than before, or is it just me?
fixed her left leg (the one in the back), it was too short. had to move the whole picture a bit to the right.. maybe now that there's not that much of empty space on the right, i might get away without needing any props. But i would like to have something more, than just a naked demon chick in my painting, even if its just some jewelery.. hmm.. maybe its time to go look at Frazetta paintings for some inspiration :)

elly - it does, doesn't it? :D i guess i and the artists on Ben 10 have just been inspired by the same artists.. yeah and i love dramatic lighting, you can imagine the forms much more clearly than if there's no shadows... it's like i can touch that ass in my mind :D haha :P
Flubbles - i'll try that whip idea :)

[Edit:] maybe its because its 5:48 AM and im really tired, but her head is looking too big to me.. i'll go to sleep and look at this with fresh eyes, maybe its nothing..

Dandelions are grossly underrated.. pretty

elly (Feb 27, 2010)

I had a blast with dandelions growing up! Nice touch with the lady bird beetle (or if you prefer, lady bug =)

firecracker (Feb 27, 2010)

I like that little ladybug......she's sooo cute....:)
