Wing

A couple of weeks ago I suddenly remembered about a character that I had designed back in my teens. It's a terrible design, and went through several different variations, as seen below.

If I have any watchers who remember my old work, they might recognise these: [link]

Go on, have a good chuckle, I did looking back on them the other day! She was a sparkle dog!

Anyway, it got me thinking about how I could update the character and try to make the design stronger. This newer version is still crazy cheesy, but I had hell of a lot of fun painting it- it's been a bit of a break from the work I've been doing for other people, doing 5 minutes of it here, 10 minutes there etc.

I've also used it as an opportunity to try a different way of painting for once. Instead of being intensely focused on detail, I'm doing blockier colours and shapes, and trying to suggest parts of the character rather than render everything completely.

Depending on if there is any interest, I'm thinking of offering this type of thing for commissions. I'll be updating my journal about it next week some time.

This is also a sister piece that kinda goes with this one:

Anyway, thanks for looking!
