Day #63 - Screenshot of Zaheer

I am still reeling from the amazing show that is Legend of Korra, but I'll manage somehow. Zaheer without a doubt is one of my favourite villains from the show, it's just a shame that he couldn't be with his beloved P'Li. I really enjoyed the role he played in helping Korra go back into the spirit world. This drawing is quite a big deal to me because this is the first time that I have used my Faber castell pencils for doing artworks. I was really happy with the result and I had experimented with layering the colours before hand and I must say it turned out all right but I felt like I drew the nose too big and the eyes a little bit smaller. Always room for improvement right? Please if you have time to, could you critque on what you think I should do to better my work. Thank you!

Day #3 - Korra Alone: Screencap redraw

Korra alone was just beautiful (in a tragic way).  I really loved the scene where 'Dark Korra' wrapped her chains around Korra and pulled her down into a pool of poison. It just simply showed how much her battle with Zaheer and the poison had mentally shaken her up so much and how out of touch she is with herself.  Whilst watching, I went into my usual habit of print screening shots that looked interesting to draw and this definitely was one: the scene where she told Asami how she really was coping. I was actually worried  hoe everything looked whilst drawing this and I am actually quite happy with the outcome of this. I was tempted to use pencils then I remembered (Inktober, duh). Used fineliner again with the method of criss cross mark making. This one took a bit longer than the first two, but it's all good.

9am lectures on a Monday, are just a no no. Til next time, Twinkle toes :)
