Description
Twilight wip 3This was a wip for Twilight - A Perfect Love
But I thought I would leave it on, as I like the slightly paler one.
Twilight wip 3
Edward and Bella [link]
Robert Pattinson

Rob's Eyes [link]
**Latest work done**
Definitely making Bella "vampire Bella" from Breaking Dawn, the more I thought of it, the more I liked the idea, so I am using the make up that Kristen wore in the ref pic I have rather than the Bella make up I was doing, plus have used a different ref pic to tilt her face round slightly, so I didn't have to deal with that long nose that always seems to catch me out.
Have worked more on the shading, but there is still more to do. Definitely goin to finish it tonight!
Time so far 44+ hours
A4 Bristol Board
2h; b; 5b; loads of 8b; 9b; tissues; mech 0.5mm 2B; mech 0.3mm B; putty rubber; blender; Tissues; white gel pen for highlights on eyes
Wondering if I have taken on too much with this, bit above my ability levels, but I will persevere.
I am desparate to finish it in time, so it will be my 2nd entry for Twilight competition.
*The Ref Pic*
The ref must have been photoshopped by someone, cos I am 100% positive that they did not get naked in the film!
*I have found a sharper pic of the ref for Bella. Her hair is down in the original ref, , but I love the way he is holding her and pulling her hair back with his hand, so I am sort of "dressing her hair" to more suit Bella than Kristen (if that makes sense),
This is scan 15 and when it is finished I will upload either links or an animation or collage of all the wips.
I am not good enough to do a tutorial, but if it helps anyone to see the wips when it is finished, then,..no problem. I will put them together in some way or other.
Wish me luck, this one's a stinker!!!

I think I am going to feel like my hand has been cut off when I put it in my folder all finished
Won't know what to do with myself!

i can totally imagine!! don't worry, you'll make it!! i felt like that too!!!
but everything goes away when you see the product and you understand how much you enjoyed yourself while doing it!!

I think I might be sad to finish this one.
I don't do anything with them when they are finished either, just filed away in a folder.
I always find the hardest bit is starting the next one, the line work for this took 2 1/2 hours, and I don't enjoy that nearly as much as the shading.

jojokersina In reply to Dragonsanddaffodils [2009-04-14 20:21:48 +0000 UTC]
and that's exactly why i start a few of them at the same time...so i'm not too "focused" on one and i can come back later and see at one of them with a more critical look..
btw, i don't do anything with them too.. i just enjoy drawing them!!

Thats a good plan actually! I have two others I need to work on, might do the linework for both of them at the same time GOOD PLAN!
So many on here seem to sell them etc.
I wondered what most people do with their drawings

no, i don't sell them,... i sell my photos (even though no one has ever bought me one..damn, cause i'd like to buy a subscription and i don't have enough money).... but i guess that drawings are just too personal for me to be sold...

I've only ever sold one calendar, and I found out that was to one of my pupils! I found it really hard to give away the family drawings at christmas...........so much work, but I am glad cos they are all on display at their houses, which must mean they like them

i'll see if my family likes them too cause i have to give my dad's his birthday present and i wanna do my cousin's children for the next christmas!!
and a few of my drawings are at my friends's houses...

I can't believe they wouldn't.
Thats nice that your drawings are at your friends houses.......isn't it weird when you walk in and see them though!

a little, yeah...
but well, i came to think: "i made them, i put so much effort in them, at least someone will see them.."
at least i hope my dad's gonna put his in his office so i won't see it very often..
it would be too weird.. as i'm in it...
even drawing it was weird!!

Ah, but I used you in spirit rather than body
Still working on it, but have to go and marzipan 11 tiers of wedding cakes now (not all the same cake though! )
Will definitely finish it tonight!

Wow, it looks really wonderful so far, the shading is really good!
You really captured their likeness, well done! Btw. you draw much smaller than me, that could be a reason why you can't achieve that details

Dragonsanddaffodils In reply to Blacleria [2009-04-14 19:47:17 +0000 UTC]
Thank you! Coming from you that is such a huge compliment! Still working on the shading, Bellas face is really hard work cos I am working from two different refs and the angle is ever so slightly different in the two.
I could never work larger than A4, I would take too long!!!!! Supposed to have been working on wedding cakes today but have spent it drawing instead!

Dragonsanddaffodils In reply to jacksl [2009-04-14 20:15:51 +0000 UTC]
We were not together that long before we got married, and didn't live together before, so nakedness came later! I prefer to think I was a good girl rather than a boring girl
Why do you think we waited a few years before the kids!

oooh....you were good.....we lived together pretty much straight away...and had our first little "surprise"(Jenny) after three years...after the 2nd "surprise" (Alex)...we thought it would be a good idea to get married.

Aah, but suprises are lovely!
Our little planned two came so quickly, that the Doctor said precautions against suprises wasn't just advisable, but mandatory!
I am compared to the Michelle Pfeifer character (sadly not her looks ) in Witches of Eastwick when you only have to look at her and she is pregnant................hubby sorted out that risk a few years ago!

Haven't sorted out the risk yet..always thought i'd have another......too old now, i think

I think I am really lucky with Kev, he is a very considerate person and when I had problems with both pregnancies, then with contraception causing problems, he didn't even hesitate!
