Drawings for the First of the Month of June!

Happy June everyone! Here are some more drawings that I created back in May 2013 while I was working at the Cartoon Museum. There are others drawings that I created and these were created before May 2013. These drawings were all created using a couple of colouring pencils and pastels. They haven't been shown at all so I thought I'll show them this month.

Have a brilliant June!:































I might make more of drawings for the first of next month which will be July. Stay tuned! ;)

Fan Art Friday: Hey Arnold by Craig Bartlett and Elenor the Easter Maiden

Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! I hope you've had a brilliant week and an awesome month so far. I'll be posting up two fan arts that I done a very long time ago.

The first fan art is of the series Hey Arnold by Craig Barlett. It was a great and fantastic series from the 1990's and it was a particular series that I watched with my brothers and sister when I was young. It was about a pre-teen called Arnold who lived in a flat alongside his granddad and grandmother. Also he had a best friend called Gerald who was black. Most of the stories that take place in the cartoon, tends to be either about him, his best friend Gerald and some of his friends from school. One of his friends who seems to hate him but actually likes him is a girl called Helga. She too has a family as well. From what I can remember there were moments in the cartoon where she would break into poetry describing her love for Arnold. But this would be done secretly as the audience we get to see her do this. This very old drawing that I've created here shows Arnold and Helga together. HOWEVER, this never happened in the series. I don't think I even knew if they be together in the end. I really don't know. But it would be cool if they did:
























The second and final fan art for today, is of the Easter Maiden Elenor. I wanted to create something that is linked to spring and also to Easter. This was created back in 2009, when I continue using Photoshop. The reasons as to why this is a fan art is that I hope to create a Spring Story at some point this year about her alongside the previous characters Angie. I will also include Rae and Demi too:























There will be more Fan Art next week. Thank you for visiting my blog and please leave a comment.

Dark and Light Story 2: Prelude to Mid-Summer Story 3/3

Hello Everyone! I hope you are all well. Here is the Dark and Light Story 2, which is prequel to the Mid-Summer story.

Other than receiving a lot of views from many countries from around the world, the most views seem to be from the UK, USA and surprisingly Russia.

As a result of this I thought that would make the princess wear a 'Duniasha' (dress) and a Kokoshnik (hat). Her intended suitor is wearing clothes which is from Colonial America during the 1700's. The villian of the story is of course from the UK and I thought that I would create the dress that she wears.

Here are the initial sketches for this story. The first is of the Russian Princess and the Colonial Officer and the ring used in the story:

For the female Villain I made two character designs. The first one was inspired by Pink's song 'True Love'. featuring Lilly Allen. I likes the hairstyle that Lilly Allen had, but I chose not to use it was too common. So I did the second one and I felt satisfied.:

Here are also the facial expressions for all three characters:

Just like my last Dark and Light story, this story will follow the same procedure, but the colours are different. The colours used in this story and also the Mid-Summer Story are based on the Irish girl band  B*Witched's second album 'Awake and Breathe' I adored the cover so much, that I thought I would follow suit with both stories. The song that inspired me to create this story was the track 'To You I belong':


















































































































































































I will be creating another Dark and Light story. This will be shown hopefully after I find out the short list of the Manga Jiman Competiton that is been held this year. Whenever I am or not part of the short-list I will be showing it around the month of January.

The next to follow is the pencil sketches of the Mid-Summer Story....stay tuned! \(^o^)/
