Winter in a bottle, preliminary

Thu, 10 Oct 2019 15:06:02 GMT

This is, again, only a preliminary Inktober scribble - I have absolutely no time for drawing right now, so... The page in my book is still empty, but hopefully, I'll come up with a better idea. Here, winter is poured out over the landscape from a bottle.

I appropriated the blue-on-blue thing from aliax_alexandre who did some really awesome ALFfH fanart in that style.

Again, I used the cheap 4x4" note paper (that really is not a watercolor paper), but this time without black ink. The blue is a cheap permanent marker (the kind of felt-tip thingy that comes in packs of four, black-blue-red-green, for 1€). The white is ink and ink pen. I found out that the blue marker can be used as sort-of-watercolor if you take the color from the tip with a wet brush. Funny: I thought the brush tip had been dyed permanently blue by the marker, but when I took up the white ink afterwards, it washed the blue out again! Solvents are interesting things. XD

Red on pink, just for fun

aliax_alexandre challenged me to draw something red on pink. Uh...

Unfortunately, the only pink paper I could find was in here:

...and that's about as far removed from watercolor paper as it gets. XD So this is not serious "art" but just an attempt to see what red on pink would look like, theoretically, if I could find good pink paper somewhere...
