Detail of "Wakeup Call"

When I originally inked "Wakeup", I spent a fair amount of time (okay, a few minutes during a local 'furmeet') inking the hair and its highlights.

The amount of detail didn't translate well when I colored the pic (too complicated), and I wound up replacing the inkwork with a simplified set of color highlights and shadow.

Depicted here is a detail shot of the original inkwork before I colored it, all done with a size 2 Windsor & Newton round-bristle brush and Speedball ink. It's also one of the best examples of the technique I've done to date.

We all know the feeling. For some of us, it hits too early. Tanya reacts to the racket of a less than pleasant alarm clock.

Was that Rain?

Tina reaches out to see if more raindrops are coming out of that approaching storm. More detailed info at the [Comment] link.

A hot day in the park finds Tina letting a water hose run till it's cold enough for refreshment. With those sandals, it's anyone's guess as to whether she knows she's flooding the immediate area.

Micro R/C was still relativley new when this piece was created, hence the expression on Tina's face when her boyfriend Todd took his Civic for a "test drive". Too bad real Zip Zaps won't climb hills like that :)
