Fan Art Friday: Saint DragonGirl by Natsumi Matsumoto and Vows by Tamaria Sona

Happy Fan Art Friday everyone! Today I'll be posting two drawings one of them is based on a manga and the other is a short e-book. Also both of them are in watercolour paints.

The first fan art is of Momoka Sendou from St DragonGirl by Natsumi Matsumoto. This manga was recommended by a website called Goodreads. I was intrigued by the front cover as well as the blurb behind the first volume. So I found the volume on at the library consortium and read it and surprisingly it was really good. 

I quite like Momoka a lot and I thought that it was really awesome that there were moments where she would fight back. At some moment in this volume she ends up posesssing a dragon spirit. With the help of her best friend Ryuga, they both end up fighting evil spirits. I was very intrigued and surprised of how this first volume ended so I'll be reading the rest to find out what happens next.

I thought that it would be great to draw Momoka in in the traditional Chinese clothes that she is usually seen in the volume. Also I decided to use violet and white too. Since this is a Shoujo Luanda I thought I'd draw flowers in the background.

At some point I will draw Ryuga. Here's the drawing:

The second and final fan art for today is of Addison and Peyton from the novel Vows by Tamaria Sona. Two weeks ago I was bound to my bed and decided to read some ebooks to pass the time. This was one of them that I read and read enjoyed. Also it is one of the ebooks that I keep going back to and keep reading. 

The novel is about Addison who goes through a dramatic period when she looses her best friend Peyton as a result of a car crash. Addison and Peyton's husband Colin go through a mourning period. Addison is the main narrator of the novel and she decides to go through a stage of healing that not only benefit herself but her family too. This book was very heavy on drama but on how a relationship can be solved with a hear to heart conversations. Also Addison had moments where she would feel Peyton's presence advising and helping her to keep going. I thought they was really lovely so I wanted to convey them in a drawing. There were two versions of this drawing but since the first drawing was used on thin paper I felt that it was necessary to redraw these characters again. Addison's dress is in monochromatic blue since I love the colour blue and Peyton is in a form where we as the audience can see her but Addison can only feel her presence and hear her but cannot see her.:

There will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting and please write a comment.

Fan Art Friday: Merida and Queen Elinor from Brave by Disney Pixar

Hello everyone and Happy Fan Art Friday! Today I will be revealing one fan art for today. This drawing was created using watercolour paints and a mechanic 0.5 pen. 

Today's fan art is of Merida and Queen Elinor from the Disney Pixar movie Brave. The movie tells the story about a teen called Merida, who is going the procedures of being a princess. I found out about this movie on the radio. Next I did a bit of research and found out that it was yet to be released in the UK. I was immensely excited about this. I spent most of my time back then watching a lot of historical documentaries as well as the programmes like Horrible Histories. Since the movie was first released in Scotland because the movie was set there. This was one movie that I really enjoyed a lot. The story really interesting too. There was a immense sense of a heart to heart with both of these characters and I thought that that was awesome.  Another thing that I really enjoyed a lot was the music. It made me feel drawn into the story. I loved the film music so much that three days after watching this movie, I bought the soundtrack. While listening to the album, I felt I was re-living the moment where I was in the cinema with my older brother watching this movie.

 There was a lot of humour too and it left me laughing for hours. I really wanted to draw this movie  ever since I had watched it. Sadly I was unable to figure out how I was able to portray them. The drawing that is portrayed here is similar to what I thought of. When I completed this drawing I realised one thing. Queen Elinor is kneeling before Merida. I was quite surprised at this. But this was in a good. way.

There will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting my blog and please write a comment.

Sunday Watercolour Drawing (2/5)

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a great sunday so far. I thought that I'd show another watercolour drawing alongside the one that I made last week. This time I have chosen to draw a guy. He's a lot different as to how I draw men in the other drawing that I made in the past however I thought it would be great to create a different approach. I drew a floral background out of random. The reminder of what this drawing has from last week is that the top that he is wearing is based on medieval clothes.

There will be another drawing next sunday. Thank you for visiting and please write a comment. :)

Fan Art Friday: The Powerpuff Girls by Craig McCracken

Happy February and Happy Fan Art Friday. Today I will be showing only one fan art today. This fan art was made using watercolour paints and a mechanical pen with 0.9 red lead.

Today's fan art is about a cartoon network programme called The Powepuff Girls by Craig McCracken. This programme came around during the years of my preteens and around the time it was on TV it was part of a segment called 'Cartoon Cartoon'. The show is about three girls called Buttercup, Blossom and Bubbles who were created using a children's nursery rhyme called 'What are little girls made of'. The person who made these girls were called 'Professor'. I don't think I can remember him having a name. After adding the ingredients into the mixture he accidentally adds one more ingredient. This is called "Chemical X".  The mixture then explodes and then the girls are then created. It's still one of the programmes that I can still remember that made me laugh and also dance. There was also a narrator who was absolutely hilarious. He would always made me laugh. Each cartoon were incredibly short, I assume around 15 minutes, but it was still incredibly awesome. I still kept watching the series even in my teens. I also adored the ending theme song. There was one episode that I can remember that had a song that had the phrase 'A signal in the sky'. The song was pretty awesome and it was a similar to music from the sixties. The episode that had this song involved a new neighbour that was going to live next to where the girls lived.

The drawing that I have made uses the colours that the girls wear and also a green background with spirals.

There will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visting and please write a comment.

February First of the Month Drawing!

Happy Feburary everyone! Today and every sunday of this month, I will be posting new drawings. This week I made a couple of drawings. Some of them took a while to complete hence there will be only one drawing today.  I decided that it would be great to improve on my skills on traditional materials so most of the drawing that will be shown this month will be in watercolours. In this drawing I have drawn a couple in medieval clothes. I'm not only please with the clothes but also with the creation of the clouds. Although it looks very abstract I decided that I will leave it to you to think about what the drawing is about.

Enjoy your weekend. Thank you for visiting and please write a comment.
