The Dark Crystal group set by Johnny Perez |
I've been making some headway into my 31 Days of Watercolor featuring fantasy faces from mythology to movies. If you're a sucker for seeing the art process,
check out this playlist of videos that I've compiled. I initially started this project with a contest in mind, but then I thought the contest had been deleted, I couldn't find it for a while, and then before I knew it, I was behind, and the contest winners were announced. :-/ I mean I got some entries in in the beginning but still, it was disappointing. But I don't want to dwell on that, instead I'm just gonna finish the challenge. SO 31 tiny portraits of fantasy characters are still in the works, I think I'm at 23 now?

WIP drawing of "Howl" by Johnny Perez |
So I wanted to get ahead for a moment so I thought I'd just do well-known characters instead of making them up like when I started. That way I didn't have to spend so much time thinking of something. It helped and it hurt. LOL! These characters are some of my favorites so I wanted to do them justice, so while I was just playing and experimenting more with my own characters, I was now spending this "extra" time with details and trying to get a good likeness done. All in all I'd have to say I love doing them though, because I love having this type of fanart added to my repertoire (fancy), and I like knowing that I'm working (even for myself) on a franchise I love!

And hey who knows if I get lucky and someone from these franchises sees my work and asks me to work on them for real?! *Mindblown* SO far I've done:
