Figurine! Re: Pottery

So as you might have noticed from an earlier post I've been doing pottery once a week for a couple months now, and recently started taking a more intensive class for it.

This was a figurine that I scuplted in week two of said class, finished sculpting her the next week, fired her, glazed her and then fired her again and just got her back. She's done! There's a bunch of things I learned on the way that I would change now (unfortunatey once she's fired you can't really go back!) but for a first attempt at a hand-built porcelain statue, I think she came out pretty good. :]

First Picture is a process picture - after she's been fired the first time, the glaze when it was put on, and after she was fired the second time. The rest are pictures of her complete!

Wood Elf Pin-Up

Wood Elf Pin-Up that I started for that Art Order contest months ago (before life + job got in the way). Not happy with it but need to call it done and start on something fresh.

Mermaid Watercolour

I did this months ago for Guido Kuip. It's watercolour and ink - one of the few traditional paintings I've done in years and I am still rather unhappy with the tail. (I decided not to edit the tail out in photoshop, though I did clean up a few other lines.) One day I'll use this as a base and make a better digi-painting out of it, but I thought you might like to see the original.

I'm currently on vacation and going through my old files to see if there's anything I wanted to post that I hadn't before, or things I didn't finish that I'd still like to, or if there was anything I wanted to toss. I'll let you guess which group has more work that falls into it! ;]

New Pin-up!

This week I was working on a pin-up for the Character of the Week round, 'CA Ink'. I've also Cross posted it to my other blog, which is a co-op pin-up art blog called 'Not Your Father's Pin-Up'. You should check it out if you haven't already!

I've also included a close-up of the face.

Now, without further ado...
