magi

Character idea that I sketched up of a Magi and her spirit companion. I had started to tidy up the lines and then got distracted. Once I came back to the drawing I started seeing too many things "wrong" so didn't go any further.


I have been reading a lot of Ben Caldwell's books and it has given me a new life with my drawings! I find that I am considering more of what things are for and why they should be there (telling a story) and simplifying shapes, straights and curves a lot more. It's made drawing fun again and hopefully I have managed to pass the plateau I was stuck on!

Hope you agree and thanks for checking out the blog!

Definitely feeling the Caldwell in this one! I've been meaning to grab some of his books - I've got loads of his stuff in my inspiration folder from the Drawing Board.

You magi's got a certain Raven from TT crossed with Morrigan from DA going on. An effective, if unsettling combination!

G! I never did respond to this comment and it was such a good one. My apologies.

Thanks as always for the kind words and for the awkward thought of Raven and Morrigan combined!
