Description I'm going for a diffrent style here.
With this one I got inspired by a red riding hood doll I found on google, I couldnt find the picture anymore...
And then instead of wolves I made owls
Perhaps i'll make a digital version of this someday

I need to work on my skills when it comes to using traditional mediums haha

I hope you all like it!

Ps: I edited the background in photoshop, the scanner kinda ruined it :/

Adorable! I like how the owls are curious about this little girl in the middle. (ovo) My only crit is that needs a bit more contrast, but a simple fix adjusting the levels in Photoshop will fix that.

Thank you!
I totaly agree with you on that I tried it before, but then those white spots became really ugly, but I will give it another go!

You're welcome! Adjusting levels just takes some playing around with, also contrast and brightness. XD What I also recommend is to duplicate your image in another layer, so that you have the original just in case if you don't like what you adjust.

I really like this design and your art is as cute as always. I think you should darken up the colours a little bit, it looks like the scanner might have washed them out.

Aw thanks allot!
Yeah you are right, I tried making it darker but then you see allot of white spots ...the background was allready like that, thats why I edited it.

I think i'm make a digital version in the eventually and make that one very dark

I had a go to see and it seemed all right. There were white spots but you can fix them with a paintbrush but a digital version would look nice too!

Yeah thats true, butI allready fixed the background digitally, since it was really bad XD, but I dont like it very much :/, yeah, i think i'll try that, then I can leave this one closer to its original state
I might try and re-scan it with a black paper behind it, that might help, since the paper is really thin

Maybe a thin wash of paint could help too.

Dracuria In reply to nnaj [2012-03-11 17:55:25 +0000 UTC]

I dont dare to use paint on it in case it gets ruined
I know how silly that sounds, but this was made for a special... uhm event, so I want this one to stay in its original state, as a reminder of that day
