Little Legolas!
He's not quite right, but I am pretty pleased with him, and he did take me all night!
I've always had one of dawnlyn's drawings in mind when I've written about Little Legolas, but she didn't reply when I asked her for permission to post it with my stories, so I decided to make a manip. I managed to find this picture of a very young Orlando:
I painted out his fringe, and pasted on various patches of elven hair, taken from here:
...built him an elven robe from Figwit's collar:
...and doesn't he look cute? (Though he doesn't have blue eyes. Or even brow eyes ;-) I've used him three times so far:
...
Back in May, eilonwy1 and bunney asked me to design a Dramione postcard and a Dramione button (badge) to be included in the goodie bags bunney was planning to hand out at her Dramione roundtable at Ascendio (a big HP con).
I'd never made anything so big or so circular before, so it was a bit of a challenge, especially as I had to build Draco various shoulders and bare chests from blocks of colour and paint. These are actually reduced versions, because I made the originals huge, with a resolution of 300 dpi (which is, I believe, print quality)!
...
I've just sent off my artwork for the eagle_rbb (reverse big bang) fest. I'm pleased with the idea I came up with -- in fact, if I wasn't so severely blocked, I'd write it myself -- but I'm so worried that no one will choose it :-/
