Phew, just finished reading entire thread.

Well done to all of you who have made things already, they are looking absolutely fab.

I will post some pics of my makes as I do them. Just loitering for today.

Hi!!

OK so I've finished my drawing of Eddy which was a practise one ready for when I get my canvas. I've really enjoyed doing it, hence why I got it done so quick and I'm pretty pleased with it.
When I get the canvas I'm going to trace over the picture with greaseproof then trace it onto the canvas and then paint it.

I tried to take piccies to share with you all but they haven;t come out very well as it is made up of pencil lines. However I'll post them anyway!


Eddy's head:




Eddy's body and arms:




Bottom Piece:




I know they're not very clear but I really wanted to share it with you, hopefully you can make it out!! I don't know why the bottom one is smaller!

I'm going to add the lightning effect on top after I've painted Eddy as it will be easier that way! The original picture I copied it from is in an earlier post, it has a blue background and lightning over it!

siren - you are clever............wish I could draw/paint like that. Best I can do is a few splodgy type water colour flowers or a daft cartoon type drawing............lol

Awwwww thanks everyone!!

I have to admit it came out better than I thought it would! I tried to break him down into shapes and go from there with him. Just need to pick up a canvas and transfer him onto to that ready to paint him. I really can't wait to start him and I'll share a completed piccie once he is done. I'm sure the painted piccie will show much much better as well!

I'm bored today though, I work part time you see and am home all day today but only have the ironing to do housework wise. Trying to see what I can do craft wise, which isn't much as I'm running out of materials hehe.
