Doodle of the Day #3/Late night sketch

This was (very, very loosely) based on a photo of Holly. She wouldn't stop moving, so it's sorely lacking in detail cos the photo's fuzzy... that and it's late, and I can't be bothered cleaning my erasers... o.O

HIMPO =]

TA DAH! XD

This is Himpo the tortoise. Me and Kim made him at Palm Beach yesterday. 

Doodle of the Day #2

Drawings & '11 + '12 favourites.

 Hiya! ^.^

 Here are drawings I did 2 days ago.

These are my favourite drawings from 2011. They're not coloured in because I was lazy... I still am though... 

You should read or watch naruto!!! It's epic!! :)

These are my 2012 favourites. As you can see, there are still no coloured drawings. :D

This is Kon (bleach)

This is Azusa (k-on)

KK & Salt Dough

Boo.

This post is really late since I haven't created anything particularly nice to look at recently :P , and is based around Kris Kringle traditions with friends. Seeing as VJV (currently our one and only - and hence much beloved ♥ - follower) was the recipient of this year's gift, there probably isn't much need to explain. But alas, I shall explain regardless - to avoid a poor, unfortunate soul stumbling by this post and becoming befuddled. :)

So... for the past two years my friends and I have made each other handmade Kris Kringle gifts :D (wow. that explanation was a lot shorter than my rambling...)

This was the gift I painted for Xmas 2011...

Matt Bomer (aka Neal Caffrey from White Collar)
in watercolour and pen

Leo & Erma

And these were for 2012...

They were made with salt dough, covered in white primer (because some of them got a little fried in the microwave), painted with watercolours, then sprayed with fixative and hairspray.

...with some Xmas decorations (and Kingsley)

Obviously a primed surface + watercolour paint wasn't the best idea... but I liked the slightly faded look when I test tried it.  I thought (hoped) the fixative and hairspray would help to stop the colour from rubbing off so easily with water, but it didn't really... it just made them a little sticky and hairspray scented. :/ So if anyone plans on trying this (i.e. note to self) - I imagine some sort of spray gloss/varnish would be much more appropriate. Or don't use primer... just avoid frying your stuff in the microwave :P

Finally, here's the lil elephant that I decided to keep for myself.

Kingsley

...and another pic with my hand for scale

           Because he was too cute not to. :)
