Another April Done, and Wow.

Thank you so much for making this month one of the highlights of the year! Your participation is exciting, inspiring, and the kick in the seat of the pants to get working on art even if the mood doesn’t strike. My bad elbow made it difficult for me to work well on the art I submitted, so I’ve done a lot of sketches and roughs, but what’s really important is keeping those muscles - physical, intellectual and emotional - moving. 

Everyone who posted, looked, liked, reblogged, commented or otherwise participated to April Drawing, thank you. To those who count down to it and remind me that there is an interest in his, thank you! To everyone who finds art they like thanks to April Drawing and starts following individual artists found here, thank you! Tumblr was the right choice for this and I’m glad you guys make it come alive. Thanks so much. 

Same time next year?

A big late, but here’s my take on Rapunzel!
(The plant pictured is rampion, which, in the original versions of the story, Rapunzel’s mom gave her up for.)

More work on the phoenix image; soon I will dive into watercolors for most of the background.

Finished Alien Miss; the 3D effect from the foam is diminished because of the scanner but in person it looks neat. :]

Very quick here, but I had to sneak it in-the “literally” challenge-I cheated and used words…get it? :p

More work on Zafiro. This model sheet is for a 3D modeler so some stylistic modifications will occur. 

I’ve been occupied with inking this dragon design for the band banquet poster. The idea is for each senior to have one of these so people can sign them.

Well, I want to thank the organizers and everyone who drew for the April Drawing Challenge, I’m so glad I joined in!

And so I wrap up my April Challenge with what I’ll be playing after this.

(I’m actually playing the second game but whatever.)

Felt like practicing with my brush pen today, and the results turned out better than I anticipated.  Still got lots to learn, but this was actually fun :)

Me provocó practicar entinte con pincel, y el resultado me salió mejor de lo que me esperaba.  Todavía tengo mucho que aprender, pero me divertí haciendo esto :)

“And then, when she fell asleep - as though dead - they nibbled on her ears to try and wake her. And when that failed, they kept her warm with their little furry bodies until her prince came to wake her.”
