Re: Claude for Fran - WIP pencil drawing


Must admit Mags I was a bit concerned with the eyes as the photo I have got the pupil is actually a green/blue from the flash and it is hard to see any highlights (the highlights tend to make the eyes come alive and even on a very good photos it is hard to see them to draw sometimes) but it worked out fine (sometimes the bits I worry about just happen without any problems and I surprise myself!! lol)

His eyes seem to draw you as soon as you look at the pic....

Yes they do and they look even better in real life, I will try and get a better photo at the weekend, a close up of his face so you can see the detail a bit more.

Me and Fran have been debating the lack of tail, so I am going to add one

Re: Claude for Fran - WIP pencil drawing


Brilliant Emma!!! I am so excited that I will soon be able to have him

The tail is entirely up to you Emma. I'll leave it to your expert decision

Re: Claude for Fran - WIP pencil drawing


The tail is no problem and I would prefer that you are happy with the drawing, especially now I have pointed it out!!! lol

Yes as soon as the fixative turns up I will spray this one and Nat's drawing and send them both out. I will be cracking on with bootsy soon
