Oh my gods.

*astounded* I can't wait to see these scanned!

[stone-bitch.livejournal.com]

Are you using oil pencils? It's doesn't look like Prisma colours.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

I loathe prismacolours.

They are derwent watercolour pencils. This is the first step in colouring. :)

!!!! I see Steallar's Jay !!!! <3

[leelastarsky.livejournal.com]

Awesome! :~)

[wolftale.livejournal.com]

Ooh, awesome :D

[earthguardian.livejournal.com]

KITTY!

Are those prismacolors?

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Nah, I loathe prismacolors. They're Derwent watercolour pencils. First stage of colouring.

[perlandria.livejournal.com]

Oh I love the colors!

[darakat-ewr.livejournal.com]

Now that is a cat of a different color

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Bornean Clouded Leopard man, never drawn one before. :)

[minxee.livejournal.com]

I LOVE this picture! THANK YOU for posting it!

[silverjackal.livejournal.com]

The clouded leopard looks fantastic, and I also really like the soft colours on the ones in behind. Early days, yes, toward your finished look? It's very interesting to see the layers of work in progress.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Yup, first layer of colouring. Dry watercolour pencil, then water, then regular pencil, then sometimes more regular pencil, then acrylic / gouache / metallic paints, and then touch up on the ink.

Whee.

[stone-bitch.livejournal.com]

Ah ha, ok! They're just so vivid and alive. It's wonderful!

[toeknuckles.livejournal.com]

wow! One day, when I have the money to pay you what you deserve, I'll have to own one. 8-)

[erynn999.livejournal.com]

I thought that was Steller's Jay! *happyflail*

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Aw glad you like it! :)

[nar-kiranka.livejournal.com]

this is beautiful, this kittycat thing...woah. catches mah eyes :P

[ginasketch.livejournal.com]

Is it because of the wax buildup? I've had problems with that.

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I find them way too waxy, almost like crayola crayons. I think that's great when you're working on a rough textured paper that can handle that. But for the work I do, I prefer smoother, more blendable colours for fine-grained work.

Derwents and high quality Faber Castells are the tools of the trade for me. :)

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Just letting you know I've sent you an email with photos of the finished colours and so on. :)

Which raptor is that I spy? *narrows eyes* I'm calling it a Swainy until I know better. Can I do that? *sidelong looks about the place*

Hooray action shots! Or, well, action-interrupted shots. Something!

[moonvoice.livejournal.com]

Noooo, it is an Australian Hobby, or Australian Little Falcon. :)

[end-of-the-mind.livejournal.com]

Eeee! Hobby! I wish we had hobbies. And pygmy falcons. We have Aplomado falcons, though, or so I'm told. Never seen one of the blighters!

He's gorgeous! I can't wait to see the colors!

[feralkiss.livejournal.com]

YES.

There was only supposed to be four in this batch, but I missed one, so it really is an epic production line! (for me, anyway, heh).
