Lorna Dane in this Dior dress b/c i got the book “100 Dresses” for my bday.
FASHIONNNNNNNNNN!
i don’t usually post sketches/not meticulously combed over things
because i’m too pickybut idk, i’m really feeling this… mostly b/c this is what i am doing rn XD
Inspired by Viola Davis at the Oscars, I adapted the Vera Wang for Storm.
i tried to use texture brushes to give the feel of a tornado, clouds and lightning?
i really enjoyed drawing horns wrt illyana the other day, so i was like let’s put horns on somebody and then i thought who would love to be a demon/horned person the most?
obvious answer: Tina Cohen-Chang, duh! Plus Tina never gets enough love. so here’s Tina as a sort of… smoky, demon badass, sword and all.
i liked the idea of horns and odangos so here is Illyana Rasputin as Serenity.
pink bubbles! yay!
Redd [tagline: who is the real wolf?]
pentel inkbrush on paper, scanned in badly and then photoshopped red… birdy kept posting red riding hood art and with grimm giving me an affection for werewolves….idk. have a queer red riding hood. thing.
quick colored sketch of tumblr user, and fellow lauren…en, callmekitto [i didn’t know her eye color so they’re grey/cyan - it’s MY eye color&we’re both lauren lol? idek..] eating pizza and being awesome!
i kind of like the uncolored version better? idk i like the colors too… i think i’ll post the colorless and the basic sketch layer on my art blog later. anyway, i hope she and everyone else likes it.
basic sketch layer:

uncolored version:

so this started out as racebent Irene Adler and the thought was Indian. and then the thought was what if she was a bit short and a bit pudgy with a bit of a big nose because that’s the things you don’t see on “traditional” leading ladies and then i gave her an eyebrow and a nose piercing on the same side which is rare i know but w/e w/e i do what i wants, and then I was like screw underwear put some JEANS on this booty because that’s what I AM WEARING. and then i was all MONOCHROMATIC IN AQUA BECAUSE I FELT LIKE IT. and then… idek. I POST IT.
archival note: 2nd drawing of 2012, managed to not fuck up & sign 2011 yet. woo.
Chichi [DBZ] as a red lantern,
my first drawing of the new year!
for some reason been real into lookig at silent film stars, esp lillian gish so, have a sort of silent film star sketch in… cyan. well, the cyan was because i just watched stardust, the sassy pose was because i was listening to kate voegele, and the dress was because the song was called angel.
it makes sense in MY head ok :P
punk/tattoo’d Wanda - inspired by this wonder woman art, it… did not turn out like i wanted it :/ oh well. nothing does. i did the pink things on a separate layer and then saved it without so you could see the tats…. and cuz i forgot. but i like it better which is terrible? need to revisit this design yo.
