Sketchy Sunday 15
Apr. 13th, 2014 03:47 pmBit later than normal; I've been gathering images for future I Like Mondays, which has taken me most of today. Anyway, here's this week's efforts:
I am AWESOMELY proud of my pegasus! I knew I was giving myself problems with the angle, perspective, anatomy... and it somehow turned looking reasonably realistic. :D My favourite part has to be the initial ruffle of feathers where the wing joins the shoulder. I only added these at the last minute in a desperate attempt to avoid detailing the whole of the wings (which is what I had been trying to do), but still make them look feathery:
The actual shapes are very simplistic - just long, pointy-ended ovals with a line up the middle - and I didn't expect it to work at all, even as I was drawing it, but the overall effect is so effective, I had to stop and squee at myself. Still can't quite believe that I came up with it!
