aw this is very kind of you, but lately I feel myself so slow, almost paralyzed while drawing I hope this period won't last long and I'll find pleasure in my own work again not just in looking at my favourites like this one

This is great, loving the colours and the detail you've put into it.
Hope you will be doing more of these black paper drawings!

Thanks Dean, I appreciate it

The black paper is a lot of fun and so fast! There will be more for sure now I've discovered I can draw during the day without the risk of my grubby children touching my white paper

You're killing me here! This is so beautiful. If you don't do more of these I might have to hold you hostage.

Very well done, Paula! I mean ONLY 5 HOURS in A4 size?!?!!?!

(I've only been wanting to comment since you posted this earlier....I deactivated my account Saturday night/Sunday morning like an idiot and had to wait 48 hours)

I received everyone's replies and deviations during my "time-out," but I couldn't reply or comment in return. It was very weird. It's hard to believe my account still exists intact and why in the world would dA enforce a 48 hour deactivation period? I felt very punished for making a stupid mistake. Lesson learned!

You're welcome. It's become one of my top faves from you.

Ok, I wouldn't want to worry you. My Facebook account was permanently deleted a few months ago... you knew right? This is the only social networking website account I have left.

Rockinfroggi In reply to ??? [2012-03-19 23:31:35 +0000 UTC]

Is there no justice in this world? your little Devngels allowed you the time to draw this and here's me with more time on my hands than Timex and I've not held a pencil today.

I read the comment from Kris above and have to say I agree, for me there is something that doesn't look quite right with the neck proportions. But for such a fast draw this is still WOW. All the detail is so clear even down to the reflection of her eye.

I'm pretty sure you took my advice and got the hammer and nails out.

Well, just the little fell for the most part, Rebecca was at school He drew crayola scribbles, I did this

Your a bunch of neck noticing stinkers I agree though but I think I've fixed her up a bit, how does it look now? Still wonky?

I wouldn't be a very good pain in the arse friend if I lied now would I? you stroppy great lump of lumpiness.

That little tweak has made the world of difference.

Naw you would be a rubbish frog friend if you didn't I much prefer to know, it's easy to overlook things

Yay, I'm glad it's better, thank you for taking a look. I had extended the neck link right up behind her ear So she got black penciled to fix it
