Man, it's been a long time since I painted something not tiny! Really out of practice so figured I'd try redrawing something from my gallery. Had to change my painting style to something a bit more solid looking when I was at college (tutors didn't approve of me using graphite details or white outlines with watercolour, argh) so I was trying to pull back a bit and sorta ended up between painting styles, it was interesting to work on but pretty weird! I figured some stuff out that should make the next thing a looot easier to do. At least I hope so!

Watercolour, coloured pencil, white gel pen...oh yeah, it was my first time using Fabriano watercolour paper too...I made sure to find out which side was the most textured so I could avoid it (hate seeing paper texture in my own stuff, love it in other peoples work) aaand accidentally used that side without noticing until the lineart was finished :'D
