NEVER AGAIN

Dec 10, 2007 19:33

Oh my goody godness. I just spent THREE HOURS on ONE PIECE. Aladdin has destroyed my soul. I was doodling while listening to the soundtrack and all of a sudden I was inspired so I doodled Aladdin on a rooftop and Abu with him. Then I realized the rest of the paper was blank, as it usually is, but I wanted to take a chance with backgrounds. OH MY GAWD.

I swear to god my hand was shaking and cramped by the end of it. I drew Agrabah on a MINIATURE SCALE. Tiny windows, Tiny rugs, Tiny pots, Tiny Everything. Ow. Then I went ahead and hid a bunch of mickey mouse heads everywhere. But now I have to redo it because I hate the way Aladdin's foot came out and I want to add more detail. Once the lineart version is uploaded, you may be astounded.

Aladdin's hair was a problem. All the screencaps I could find were grainy of warped or he was doing a weird expression so I couldn't see his face properly. So I kind of made it up as I went along but it came out pretty close to the original. I used several screenshots for Abu because his little monkey face is so hard. Then I looked up Indian and Arabian architecture and some MORE SCREENSHOTS. I finally finished about five minutes ago.

My hand hurts as if a thousand unicorns barfed spiky rainbows on it. Never again with the complex backgrounds. Maybe I'll get Alex to do it for me, lol.

Ow. I had better get some comments on it when I REDO IT and then UPLOAD IT. I'll have the lineart version and the colored version. But the colored version won't be up for a LONG while it'll take so long. Gonna do it with colored pencils.

Y U E T P I N G

P.S. Apparently I have to walk around with tuna in my pants for a day cause I didn't upload Anyu on Friday. Yum. How I love the bets I make with myself, especially when I loose them.
