Description
About the ideaWell as some people might remember I have been working on an “personal OC”
As you can see here: [link] I have tried different things, but I decided this is mostly was she ( Clausy ) will look like. ( Although I might change her clothing from time to time)
This drawing was (as you probably remember from my previous, very short, artist comment) meant for this contest: [link]
I thought I would be able to kill two birds with one stone:
- I would have a drawing of the “final” version of my new OC Clausy
- I would enter a cool contest.
But I screwed up.
I have been working on this drawing on my afternoons at school, I have rushed it a little bit, just to make sure I would make it to the contest.
And then I found out this:
The deadline to enter (note/comment me that you are entering) is on October 1st, after I gather all the participants names, I will then officially start round 1
I hadn’t read that, so I didn’t send a note before October first that wanted to enter, because I wasn’t sure if I would make it, and I didn’t want to bother ~vallainy , by first sending a note I would enter, and later sending a note to excuse that I wouldn’t be able to make it.
But I didn’t give up yet, and at the deadline, 30 October, I send ~vallainy a note explain it, and straight after that a note with a link to my entry.
She send me a reply, that it wasn’t a problem, and I could just send the note with my entry. But since I already did, I didn’t send it a second time.
I’m not really sure what went wrong, but I have never seen myself in the participants list.
So I off course also didn’t make it to round 2.
About this drawing
As you can see here, I went for the red hair after all. I didn’t want to make it to bright, but more somewhere between blond and orange, but that was pretty hard, since I also wanted it to be pretty bright coloured and with a lot contrast so it wouldn’t look boring.
I also gave her a blue and a green eye. Why… well I like green eyes and blue eyes… especially cats with one bright blue eye and one bright green eye are beautiful! So I wanted them to ( Although a blue and a green eye seem to be popular these days… and since I’m trying to be unique, this worries me a bit )
As you can see, Clausy is also wearing a cross around her neck, I have the same, but smaller.
Her T-shirt was first going to be just black, but that seemed a bit boring, so I ended up putting a rose on it, I’m not sure if I will keep it.
She also has stripped sleeves.. I have those too… well there actually leg warmers… but they seemed a bit to tight, I wanted them to be really loose like those Japanese girls wear.
And off course she wears a black miniskirt, just simple and plain… although maybe some day she gets a hip chain.
She also has stripped loose socks… I’m not really happy with these… but white or black seemed boring… I was also thinking of stripped tights or stockings
She also wears Lolita shoes. I want those too… but I have just normal flat Mary-Janes. Since usually those shoes have HUGE heels… and me with my poor balance really can’t walk on that I’m afraid.
She is sitting on a red gemstone… why…well I don’t exactly know… I like red, and I kinda like shine-stuff. ( Although I’m not fond of “Bling-bling” )
The background is blue with roses… I must say blue isn’t really my favourite colour but thought it would fit the picture…

i am really impressed with your art, i was never really a fan of coloured pencils before, I thought they looked unprofessional, but theres nothing unpro about your work it is truly amazing. and while your into contests i'm gonna just go ahead and advertise mine [link] (please note I may have to change the prize to a subscription or something because the calendars on here cost a fortune) good luck with all the contests

I First thought coloured pencils looked unprofessional too.
Back then (when I wasn’t a member of deviantART yet) I was making an comic, I tried colouring it with coloured pencils, and I got convinced that the only way to make beautiful professional looking.
But then someone showed me some artwork on DA, which showed me how great coloured pencils can look. And these days I try to specialize in working with coloured pencils.
I will take a look at your contest to, since you made me curious, I don’t know if I will enter yet though
And thank you very much
