This is my youngest sister (I have 2) and it is a picture taken by my mum a few months ago ~ Laughs ~ Maybe last summer since she doesn't look cold. In the original she is sat in my mum's garden but I haven't yet started to do backgrounds, I am going to though since the final pictures I want have to have backgrounds so it seems wrong not to try. She had a gate and a bunch of grass around here though so I held back ~ Cracks up ~ I won't put a picture of her up as I am posting on MyO at the same time and haven't got mum's permission (I don't know if she wants Sammie's picture on the net) but it did look very similar to that lol!)

She is in shade hence her face being so darkly shaded ~ Sighs ~ It seems wrong to look at her face so maybe I should have shaded her less, though when she was shaded less she looked wrong so I shaded her more. I don't think my subjects should sit in shadow ~ Eyebrow twitches ~ It makes it annoyingly hard to do!

I am dead proud of her body and the ball thing she is sat on. This time I did as Elves told me and kept the lines off save the ones to show what was happening, I didn't put any outline on her hair and I definitely thinks it works best that way, I like her hair ~ Hugs her ~ I don't normally like drawing little people but she looks beautiful ~ Smiles ~ Oh and she was biting her lip but I couldn't get that across ~ Cracks up ~ Maybe next time! Oh and if you wonder about her trainer I don't like shoes so really couldn't be arsed shading that ~ Laughs ~ I think it shows!

So ye, this was done in pencils ~ Nods ~ I hope you like it ~ Peace signs ~ It took between 3 and 4 hours I think ~ Makes a note to time the next one ~ I did it over 2 days as my mind found it hard to concentrate so took a 24 hour break lol
