The black and white for this was an utter bitch, and probably the most intensive inkwork I've had to do for a while. The photo does none of this justice, but that's okay.






I'm really proud of this picture so far. I went from feeling ambivalent about it, to hating it, to being uninterested (Dani), to finally loving it. The predominant colours, so that you're not wondering, will be in the blue / magenta family, with the dirty brown of feral rabbits thrown in, and silver / platinum accents. It's going to be coloured fairly startlingly, I hope. I'm going back to my roots.

Wow. I wish I had a more articulate word. But... WOW. "Just" the black and white is...how many hours? I love the one rabbit nibbling on the bandwork while popping out her eye. Cute/horrifying.

I don't know how many hours today. But most of it was already done and it still needed two solid hours this morning just to 'touch it off.' The spirals were the worst. The bulk of this picture is spirals. It hurted my hand.

This piece is very stark and grim... but I still smiled at the rabbit popping up over the bandwork on the neck. I'm very curious how you will colour this, because even the black and white is unnerving.

Looks a bit like blue and pink bubblegum right now.

There is something quite disturbing about the rabbit jumping through her eyes, especially with that look on her face. I love it! :-)

the most disturbing thing continues to be the eyes. It snares you and forces you to look. Not gentle. At least, to me.

But still, it's awesome art and I can't wait to see the coloring.

No, it's not a gentle picture at all.

Ugh.

Holy crap this piece is amazing. Kinda weird and verging on disturbing, but I honestly mean that in the *best* possible way, if that makes sense...

I really, really love this piece. The shading had to take forever though.

It's so bizarre yet so fascinating to look at, at the same time. *stares* O.O

Great detail work on it, by the way, and I especially like the style of the rabbit lineart.

It's just so delightfully wierd. I like it, but I can't wait to see it coloured because I bet it's going to blow me away. It's also really great to see your art evolving again. You have so many different series and styles now, I am just so impressed!

Technically, the detail, composition and line work are jaw-droppingly good. But overall, this disturbs me and really does fill me with dread.

It is meant to be a disturbing picture, not 'easy' to look at. I can't look at it before I go to bed.

Gosh that's amazing o.O I *bet* it took hours to do. Wow. And yeah I can see why it got weird looks? But I totally dig it. XD Art expresses itself (or is expression) in whatever ways it needs to come out. And none of those ways are wrong, dangit. :P

I used to like rabbits. Now I'm not so sure.

I love the extra detail in the rabbit fur and what is probably shadowing around the band. The extra little black bunny there is an added touch, too.

Bunny-butt head :)

Did you deliberately draw the eye-bunny's eye so that it looked like her own eye? It seems that way to me.

Man, between you, Watership Down, and Petshop of Horrors, bunny's have stopped being cute and started being creepy XD

I love this b+w version though, I'm inspired to use more textures now instead of just the dots and lines like with Fennec fox.

Yeah, both the eye and the energy circle together. Heh.

Maybe it's just my personality and life, but to me it doesn't read as "something horrific is happening to this person, connected to the rabbits," and instead more like "the rabbits symbolize very important things about the person's self, and the stuff that's happened to them."

It makes me real curious about the fairytale you wrote that's behind this.

I can't comment on this one hun, sorry. I just can't look at it. I saw the pic yesterday and when I realised about the rabbit head thru the eyes, it just freaked me out for hours. Its one of my icky things. What I have managed to see, is awesome though.
