sleeepppyy arts

Well there were a few commissions I really took forever on and I feel quite horrid about it. I have never been grand at drawing equines but for whatever reason I was struck with the mood. This is a way overdue sketchbook commission for [livejournal.com profile] firesplace of her character. Since it took me so long to get it done, I threw on some extra detail/shading work on it. Hope ya like it :).

Hahaha, I have never seen a q tip used like that! (Then again, my experience with trad media is limited to say the least)

It sounds like a useful technique... even better, it sounds fun. I'm going to try it sometime :D thanks for the long explanation!

my experience with traditional media is limited..I started traditional media and went to digital later and kinda havent done much traditional since then..but now Im getting back into the habit.

As for the q-tip..my art teacher's mind was actually blown too when he saw me using it. I don't remember who suggested it to me first but they work better than tortillons O_o..and you can get very smooth effects with something as common as a q-tip...
