Hi! Caz issued a challenge for Monday Mania at Club Anya to use Anya and Ian as a couple (I think there was supposed to be masking involved, so I kind of cheated by cutting my images out instead of masking!) and I decided to draw them entirely new outfits and make them Romeo and Juliet. When I do this much altering I sort of treat it like paper dolls - I stamp the original image and cut it out (cutting away any extra's I don't want to use like Miss Rain's umbrella) then I trace around the cut-out with pencil and draw the new clothes. Because it's all in pencil there is no pressure - just keep playing until you are happy! Then trace those lines with a Copic multiliner (or whatever pen will suit your coloring medium), color, cut out and glue over the first cut out that you used to trace (and you have colored the skin and hair on). In this case I actually re-drew Ian's arm so they could hold hands, so I just cut away the one on the original before I glued the new clothes on top!The Details:
Stamps: My Guy Ian; Rain, Snow, Shine - The Greeting Farm
Paper: Graphic 45, Chocolate Chip (SU), White (PTI)
Copics:
Skin:R00,E00,E11,R20
Hair:E50,E53,E55
Ian Clothes: G20,G21,G24,G94,G99,E13,E15,E17,E25,E27,E29,E50,E53,E55
Anya Clothes: E07,E09,E18,E25,E27,E29,E13,E15,E17
Misc: Brads (SU), Border Punch (EK Success), Sakura Clear Stardust pen, Foam tape
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!
