'Bugger off and get us some more,' said Nanny pleasantly.'
Terry Pratchet's Witches Abroad.

Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg in stolen costume for the masquerade. I think this may be the first time I've illustrated someone else's work. Very fun to do. Graphite, in my sketchbook, maybe 8 inches high.

*giggles*

I love this, the character is so well presented in these two ladies, their lines and body language, one's an ellipse and the other an exclamation mark ;D

This is great as illustration, please do more.Oh, she's an exclamation mark! They are *so* much fun - I'll have to start re-reading the Discworld series again. I'm out of new books!

I think your pictures are wonderful.

You should be proud of this one, you nailed it down perfect. Both characters are well defined here. Most people make Nanny Ogg a very old wrinkled prune like lady without remembering she was a quite pretty girl when she was young. Granny Weatherwax has the perfect bearing as well.

Ye Gods! I wish I could draw like that. They look exactly like they should....

Witches abroad was my first discworld book, i have to go and read it again...

Nothing short of masterful! wonderful job memorializing such a classic scene! Pratchett was in rare form and this goes right along with it! youve accomplished in graphite what he says in words!
I would say nanny ogg is a bit of an exclamation point too if you know what i mean, the hedgehog song ring a bell? or her cookbook in masquerade?
