Faeries!!!



So I've been practising more with my Copics on these gorgeous images by Mo Manning Digital Pencil Too

Tabia is a beautiful little fairy blowing bubbles.
Copics Used:
Skin E15, E17,E18
Hair C1,C5, C9
Dress B00, B02, B32 (R20, R22 for trim)
Shadow C1 & C5

Someone asked me about the glittered wings here's what I did:
When I did Fabia's wings- I coloured them in the lightest blue (B00) all over.
I then went over the veins and outer edge very carefully with the B02.
I went in with the blender pen and removed ink within each section of the wing (roughly following the shape) this made the wing appear more transluscent.
I glittered her wings with Crystal Stickles which I applied and spread with my finger tip to make a thin layer.


This is Fairy 3 who is having a whale of time swooshing through the air- she looks likes she up to some mischief!
Skin E00,E11, R20
Dress Y11, Y21, Y28 and YG03
Hair E31, E33, E35

Bombshell's 'Hump Day' Blog Hop!!!

READY to Blog Hop??!!!

So as you know my lovely new 'A Pirate Life' Bombshells arrived last week.
Since my EZ-Mount arrived and I didn't get TOO much hair stuck on it, it was time to stamps and colour!
I have to say that learning to use Copics does fill me with trepidation, there are so many FABULOUSLY talented wenches out there who do such an amazing job with the pens! However once I start- I find 'colouring in' Soooooo relaxing!!

Here's my efforts on Miss Feisty Pirate girl- I went for 2 different looks.
I was feeling much more confident by the time I coloured Pirate girl in green, Pirate girl in BLUE was my first attempt and I think it shows!!



I'm slowly getting to grips with the different colour combinations (again thanks to all the online information from so many lovely Bloggers out there!) and learning as I go!

Here's the Parrot- I think I'll have fun with colouring him again!



So I hope you are enjoying the Bombshell Blog Hop I have a linky list to the other Designer's Blogs on the right so scoot round and have fun!!

Happy Wednesday!!
