Artist's Comments

Getting back into the groove of watercolor. This was a good warm-up piece for what i'll be doing in the next coming weeks, probably do a few more little ones like this until i'm sure i'm back in step.

I like this one, i tried a sligt mix of loose and tight and i think it looks really well and fits the subject matter.

This wiley little Ferret is none other than Midshipman Henry Higgins from the Dream Squadrom and Pratts of the Carribean, furrified of course.

Seems he's out of uniform again... please don't remand him Commodore.
Henry Higgins is (c) to his player, Pen-Dragon778

A very adorable, joyful, funny and well done rendition of mr. Higgins in furred form.

Great touch on the watercolours, clean and well shaded they be :)!

Hehe, the lad though, not in uniform? Tsk, tsk, he better not be spotted by the Commodore :).

I don't know much about water colours...do you use a brush and paints or watercolour pencils? Just interested...

Either way it looks great, both the line work and the painting :D How'd you choose which animal Higgins should be?

Sold my soul to the Devil, not sure how much life it had left in it though, more fool him.

Lovley, simply lovley.

Oh, and Simian? I asked to be a Ferret
:icondelightfulbunny:
Impressive! especially on your watercolor techinque. What kind of paper do you use?
:iconnekophoenix:
I really love how ferret-like he is. You could tell his species even before reading the description!

I quite like the shading on his sleeve and the blending between cream and blue-ish grey. It looks like a big storm is baring down on him and the crew!

can anybody stop this thing?
:iconfoxenawolf:
I swear by watercolor block paper, which is basically a bunch of sheets glued together so you don't have to worry about the paper warping while your painting.

The brand is Aqvarelle Arches
the paper itself is 140 lb cold press, 7'' x 10 and 1/4 ''

it was actually purchased on accident, as i prefer hot-press as its a smooth painting surface where as cold-press is rough like "normal" water color paper you would find in paper pads. The only drawback to watercolor block is being able to do only one painting on it at a time without compromising the warp resistance.

i'll probably take a picture of the block itself so you guys know what im talking about its realy great for watercolor.
