This drawing...this drawing was a disaster. Once again, I took the time to draw a portrait of my friends original character--her name's Nel--but this time I faced several bouts of frustration, anger, dislike, and irritation. It's a running joke between my friend and I that, whenever I draw Nel, I always have a difficult time. This time was no different. That being said I was still surprised when it turned out to be
the
most
infuriating
drawing I've started since the beginning of the school year.
It took just over 10 hours to complete, and I cannot tell you how many of those hours I spent trying to perfectly draw that leather jacket. (I'll give you a hint: it was too many.)
Originally, this piece was much more green, but because my friend, and this character's creator, said it reminded her too much of another one of her creations we decided it best to change it. And thus, this lavender/periwinkle/pink disaster game to be.
It's not so bad, I suppose. I just liked the green a lot better.
