Ooh, beautiful.....

But it seems like hair fwooosh* is a major part of Ford's style.  Sigrun, for all her awesomeness, doesn't have much fwooosh.  But... Reynir?

But Reynir is harder to draaaaaaaaaww.......
... Texas ... is a mystique closely approximating a religion. And this is true to the extent that people either passionately love Texas or passionately hate it....

Oh you poor, deprived children.
This is H. J. Ford.






Known as "The Master of the Pen," he is today best known for his illustrations in Andrew Lang's colored Fairy Books, aka my childhood.
Omigosh, I love those books! And the illustrations! They were part of my childhood (and adulthood...) too! Your Sigrun is a valiant effort. :)
I agree with Sunflower that Reynir might be a better subject for this style. I also would like to see a troll in this style...

Heyyy I've missed your art in this thread! This is amazing, perfect Sigrun, I love your linework and shading and especially how natural the clothes look like. She does look like she could be an illustration for a fairytale book.

H. J. Ford! Wonderful! I always wanted to see him illustrate the works of George MacDonald, but if he ever did I missed it. I would never have thought of that style suiting Sigrun, but it does.

... Do you know it will have the same result as the first time I discovered Arthur Rackham's work ? *Is lost for a moment now*
I fear H.J. Ford isn't well known in France :-\

bread: eeee NICE group portrait! reynir's enthusiasm is best

Johannabelle: that is such a gorgeous reynir, and I absolutely adore the colouring and the watercolour/nebula-y effect O: O: O:

Antillanka: ADORABLEEEE. there's always a need for some hotakainen cuteness

RTR: SCREECHes that is such a beautiful sigrun, and I'm so glad to see your art again!! also that H J Ford (i keep reading it as 'fjord' all the time gosh dangit) is amazing O:

also shoutout to the ones who drew granny hotakainen!! love it


anyway so what happened here
was laufey saying "imagine reynir with a combover"
and I can't like. imagine it and not draw that, right
I only meant to draw it as a joke but then I ended up taking my drawing seriously after all
sooooooo
here's an old man reynir

Haiz: I find it funny how you couldn't imagine Reynir with a combover, but could imagine him as an elderly man... ::)

I couldn't imagine him with a combover without dropping everything and go draw him immediately. that's what I tried to say but i got thwarted by my own punctuation tics^^"
or maybe we're talking about a different kind of combover?? i only know the type you do to cover your head going bald, and that's what the conversation was about. reynir getting bald. crushing everyone's hopes and dreams

Ah, I see. Then maybe it's weird that I can imagine him normally, but with a combover :P
