Here's Leon and Ril, pretty close to how I see them in my head. Just me trying to improve my art.
CALLED is past the 45,000 word mark, by the way. Slow but steady.

New Character Art
This one took a long time. One, because I have bronchitis and can't do much of anything for very long at all, and two, because I have a horrid time painting skin tones and redid the whole colour painting about four times.

Hi -- Did you create this using a Wacom tablet? If so, how impressive! I've got one of those and haven't devoted enough time to it. My stick figures are a lot of fun, though. Don't know why, but I always thought Leon was blond ... Congrats on the new publishing opportunities coming your way. Can't wait to read the next installments of the Sylph series. Feel better soon. --Nikki
ReplyDeleteUm, he is blond. I'm just incompetent. Painting blond hair that doesn't come out yellow is hard!
DeleteAnd yes, that was a wacom tablet. I love it.
DeleteI just re-read my note. I'm such a doofus. I hope you don't think I was criticizing your character art. Please don't think so because your artwork is amazing.
DeleteI just read The Hob on your recommendation. Lovely book, but then, Patricia Briggs' writing is spectacular. Ever read anything by Mercedes Lackey? -- Nikki
I have. I've never been able to get into her novels, but I love her short stories. My favourite short story of all time is by her. "Last of the Season" I think it's called.
