Ok, so I lied a bit.
But this girl was already inked and stretched on the board, so even though she is cute-ish, and there is a super fat fox in it, I worked on it.
Usually, with a super high definition scan, colour adjustment and a bit of messing about I can make the digital image look like the original. Or at least enough like it to feel like its a good representation. But with this image, it just isn't working. The colours are wrong and the transparent skin feeling and background splatteryness just get lost.
.
Truth be told, I usually do a tiny bit of digital surgery to my paintings after they are scanned. Move eyes a smidge, make heads smaller (hey, I like big heads!) I can see about ten things I would be tempted to tweak on this baby. But I am going to resist the urge because sometimes it gets muddy after so much messing about. And this one is too delicate to begin with.
Its Friday. And we are off to see Dir en grey tonight. I will actually have to LEAVE the house! yarg!
