Fuzzypuffs - Bella Bear with Copics!

With the arrival of my new Copics this week, I have a very small collection of Warm Greys which I was eager to try out. So I decided to try another of the images from the Polkadoodles, Fuzzypuff digi collection. I had a copy of Bella Bear just sitting there waiting to be brought to life with some colour!

Still trying to add more depth and detail to my colouring which doesn't always go as planned, but that's why is called PRACTICE! There are several issues I am not happy with, but glad I tried, there are also a few thing I am quite please with.

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE!

I don't like how I have shaded the head- it is printed out slightly larger than I usually would to try to incorporate more detail but I don't think the 3 shades of warm grey are enough to provide a more even contrast in my shading of the head! (???)

I also mucked up the cheeks, not sure how/why but just don't like the effect.

I added detail to the dress in a bright pink...I didn't like it so I added white dots.......and liked it even less! LOL

Bit heavy handed and rushed the lace on the bottom of the dress.




THINGS I AM QUITE HAPPY WITH!

This is a difficult thing for me to write as I have no confidence and feel it's like "blowing my own trumpet!

I like the fact I tried out some new colours. The Warm Greys as well as the brighter green, it is not a colour I would usually go for but the Classes over at Kit and Clowder are giving my the confidence to try ideas that are new to me.

I quite like the shading on the dress itself (just ruined it with the stripes!) and the little pink bow came out ok too.

Pleased with the rather blotchy shaded effect on the bears legs!

Right I had best get on with some paperwork so that I can do some guilt free crafting later!

Take care.
Bye for now.

I believe we are our worst critics Adele. I think you'll agree you've come a long way in such a short space of time, don't you? The bear is brilliant! Shabneez x
