The witch's house WIP 2 - Ink

And here there is the second step: I re-drawed the illustration with black ink using a bic pen and trying to obtain thicker lines on the objects in the foreground and thinner ones in the backgroud so that the illustration has more depht.

Next step the final one: colour!

The witch's house WIP 1 - Pencil

Since I am folling in love with the work in progress posts on the blogs of my mignature-paniter friends, I decided to do the same with an illustration I am working on.

This time it's up to the house of the witch from Hansel and Gretel's fairy tale.
She used to live in the wood in a house made of cakes, sweets, and so on; in this way she lured kids who she used to feed on.

So, here there is my cake-house in the wood; first step: pencil.

Red puddle

After a long time of drawing in light colours I decided to try to make an illustration with the less colours I can and the darker colours the better.
That's the result.
I don't know if she is a vampire, a witch or simply someone bathing in ketchup, you are free to choose your version.

The Haunted House

Everyone has good friends, and usually they are interesting people with interesting hobbies. One friend of mine: Carmelo is a very good writer, an amazing role player and a boardgames creator.
And it have been an honour to me to make an illustration for his last boardgame: The Haunted House that will take part in a competition.

Here there his my modest contribution to his work:

Queen of the night

Who puts the starsin the sky at night? Here there is my hypothesis: a mighty queen of the nigh is ready to do her job.
