Blood. Blood such that she had not tasted in centuries. She raised her head, allowing it to trickle down her throat. Bliss...

This is my attempts at doing some non-computer based artwork once again. Colored pencils on construction paper, but I wasn't happy with the hair and touched it up in Photoshop after the scan.

I like the red lips in the picture. It's like a finishing touch. Nice hair (again)

:-) Stephanie Shimerdla replies: "Thanks! The hair looked pretty icky until I smudged it a bit in PS. Good to know it came out well in the end, though 2"

I think the hair looks good. Using construction paper, you can't avoid some textures. Is that what you are talking about with the hair? The caption you added to it is perfect.

:-) Stephanie Shimerdla replies: "To tell you the truth, I don't remember precisely what the hair looked like on just the paper, and I've long since lost the original (or it's packed up somewhere, which is more likely). I just know that when I made this, I wasn't so hot at drawing hair. Glad you liked the caption, too. Thanks. 2"

It *is* kinda like Belle Morte.....'cept for the kinda important detail that she had honey brown eyes....and wasn't her hair curly? But anyways, LOVE IT. If this kinda thing were real, i'd say it was realistic, but now....I'm confusing myself. Anyways purdy.

:-) Stephanie Shimerdla replies: "*grin* Thanks so much."

On her teeth being too short, Steph, I think they're fine at their length. It accents her fangs(?), is she a vampire?

Love,
One of your DSL groupies.

Wow...thats freaking amazing, i think a trickle a blood coming out of her mouth would have added a nice touch though =)
