Surprise Present!

This is a rough for the last of the Christmas Cuties. This was done with a red Col-Erase pencil on 8.5" x 11" copy paper. I will enlarge this file and print it out on tabloid size copy paper. Then ink it on the light table. Scan and color in Photoshop and ta-da! Oh wait, just saying it doesn't get it done. Back to work!

This one is really cut Gene. Am I to take it that she is holding a bit of Mistletoe up over her head as a tease? Look forward to seeing thisone colored up. Almost a shame to see the Christmas pieces come to an end. Great series so far!

That should read "Cute", not "cut." Broken finger still causing a bunch of typos. Yeah, that's the ticket...it is the broken finger, not me!

Thanks Royce. I haven't decided about the mistletoe yet. Every pose of the arm looked awkward so I will have to get my model (calls to other room "Honey, I need some help") :)

Sorry to see your broken finger is still causing problems. ;)

Wooo Hoooo! This one is not done yet and may be my new favorite! I dont think you need the Mistletoe I like her just leaning back. Really looking forward to seeing the finished version!

Thanks for the enthusiasm Brian! :)

I like the both arms down, lends to the relaxed look. However, I think the Mistletoe concept would be great as a head start for the Christmas 2009 set! Never too early to start seeing that you are on a roll here Gene!
