FX Show! - PreGame

Barely have internet service so this will be quick. (I'm actually typing this while on my cell phone with support. They were supposed to be here by 8pm and never showed. Then they rescheduled me for Saturday afternoon. When I found out, I pointed out to them I wasn't going to be here, they asked why would I schedule service if I wasn't planning to be here. Yeah, it's been that kind of phone call.) Anyway, I posted this Dejah Thoris before when it was just pencil on charcoal paper, but now I have added digital color and she will be one of many new prints for sale at the show. Actually, the original will be for sale there too. :)

Check back each night and I will post some of the sketches I do. They will be digital photos because I won't have an opportunity to scan them, but that's the best I can do. :) If you are going to be at the show, stop by and say "HI"!

Oh my, still having internet problems! Hope this is resolved soon!

Love the pregame Dejah piece. I don't even mind that she is marked as '08! I really like how you achieved the translucancy of the veil in certain rounded areas.

Good luck at the show and thanks for planning to share some of the pieces!

Thanks Gary.

Glad you like the Dejah piece. The date is from the original art. I normally don't change it when I color older pieces. Perhaps I should. Hmmmmmm.

Good luck with the service problems Gene. They can really be exasperating some times!
Have fun at the show. Loook forward to seeing the pieces you sketch. I am still amazed at your streak of consecutive daily posts, sometimes multiple posts and of course all of the comments that you answer.
