art trade with thelilacfair

keirajo

My portion (finally) of the art trade with http://www.weasyl.com/~thelilacfair of their very pretty fairy character: http://www.weasyl.com/submission/1073960/droplet-fairy !

I tried my best to match colors with my markers (background) and colored pencils (character), to the digital...I hope it's okay and I hope you like it! :D

It was funny, my Pale Sage colored pencil shattered while I was sharpening it, I wound up using another pale green color to layer with Sky Blue Light for the skin tone...the pencil literally broke in half LENGTHWAYS up the barrel. Never had a pencil do that before........! lol

      Thanks! As usual...the real thing looks better...the subtle grey shading in the white almost got drowned out here in the scan........... @_@

      It was actually when I was SHARPENING the pencil...I turned it in the pencil sharpener and heard this crack and felt a stab in my hand. It was probably a good thing I saw that though...apparently the lead was broken all the way up the barrel, too. It probably never would've sharpened properly. I wrote the Prismacolor number down and next time I go supply shopping, I'll buy a Pale Sage out of the rack at Hobby Lobby or Michael's. :)

        Hopefully the new pencil you buy will have stronger lead! xD
