Teaser sketch for a little something which may or may not become a new little project for me (wonder if you can guess the fandom ;) ) as well as a special birthday gift for my mother.

LA MULTI ANI, MAMI! :heart: :party:


Recently, I've discovered that I've become bad, and I mean REALLY bad with human anatomy. It's like I've forgotten the few basic things I DID knew about it! Perhaps I did...Which - I am sorry to say - depressed me beyond reason :( Which is why, in one desperate attempt to regain my sanity, took out my sketchbook and started doodling some poses. One of them stroke me as ... "humanly possible" and I wanted to polish it up a bit. The result stand before you ^^;

Now, this work here shouldn't have been posted at all. There are lots of things that I don't like about it, namely the bridge and the willow leafs as well as a couple more details in the background, but I have become terribly pleased with the water and the folds on her dress. FINALLY! I can draw material! (minus her scarf, that looks like it's made of paper). All in all, I liked the outcome too much not to share it with you :aww:

The pic itself though has quite a story behind it, but I'm not spoiling anything just yet. I'll give you a hint though: the title says a lot.

Oh! And one small pretty quick question: did anyone ever notice that fireflies usually glow in a very greenish/yellowish kind of way, and not orange-yellow like?

Note: there will be no other major projects going on until the completion of Whispers in the Dark - the story will be finished before starting off anything else.

That being said, I wish you good night and may thy dream of fireflies!

EDIT: Wow, you guys sure are perceptive ;) Yes, you guessed right. Stay toned for the next couple of weeks for teaser sketches for the characters if you happen to be a fan =) (and also to find out who the hell this one here is )

EDIT 2: Changed a few things which have been bugging me for some time. I sure hope it's for the better and that I haven't overdone anything. Namely: touched up the bridge, polished the leafs a bit and added more fireflies!

This is beautiful. I love the reflections on the water, the fireflies, shadows and light. The girl looks like Sophie from Howl's Moving Castle. Whether she is or not, it is a lovely picture! :heart:
