Unicorn and the Princess

Description

This piece took 2-3 hours. I did some preparatory work in my head and mentally sketched the image of the wings and the spiralling cloak. I used a very hard pencil initially then used progressively softer pencils to do the shading. It would have been an ideal piece for colours, but as I had omitted to use a backing sheet for the previous page there were some pen indentations on the paper which would have affected the colouring. So I decided to leave it as it is. I picked up a few tips for working with colouring pencils, namely blending colours and making sure the shading direction was consistent. Colouring in is so complicated! Hellobaby is really good with colouring pencils, but not good with digital art. I consider myself the converse, although I had to ditch the digital colouring because it was as time consuming as hell. Hopefully with more practice I will produce decent traditional drawings with colours.

Hoooray! You've made some new work. I'm very pleased I love the cape and the horse looks extravagant. The girl looks great too! Please keep making more.
