Artist's Comments

:iconmurasaki99: won my first 1K kiriban with a screenshot and requested a group shot of her characters. I had something kind of ominous based on the latest page of "Visit the IK," here [link] but then one of my cats kind of... messed up the sketch. At the same time, her manga has picked up over 40,000 pageviews on the Privateer Press forum, so I turned the sketch into a celebration instead.

Watercolor and a bunch of other stuff.

OoooOOoo!! Love it, love it!! :heart: Thank you SO much!! :bounce: Hee-hee, I love Scrap serving up the drinks and Spirit watching him and I love Blaze bouncing around with enthusiasm. :XD:

Ch'laen, Cloud, and Phoenix all look quite happy (how many glasses of cheer have they had so far?) :drunk: And I :heart: your "V sign".

Well-done! The colors are great! Is this a combo of watercolor and colored pencil? I like the effect very much.

Woo-hoo!! :w00t:

Ah this is another that gave me fits. I think because you have to relinquish some degree of control.

I'd say the crew was working on their second round. The rest is natural student bounciness. Though I think Phoenix is discovering the joys of Firkin Port. Mmmm, port. :lol:

It's watercolor with Aquarelle pencil, which is water-soluable and somewhat cleaner to work with than watercolor.

Yup, watercolor = random surprise elements. I'm learning to just enjoy the experience of discovery, as they say. *grin*

I'd go for some of that port, too, especially after a long day like today. Worthwhile, but long and not yet over. :)

I've got the Prismacolor watercolor pencils in addition to regular Prismacolors. I should do some regular watercolor and then play with the watercolor pencils over the top. I think I need to finally break down and buy some Frisket though... got any recommendations as to brand or type?

The brand of pencils I really like are the Staedtler Karat pencils. They have an excellent color range, and I've worn all my favorites down to stubs. I need to make a shopping run and replace 'em. I also have Derwents and some no-names, but I like the Karats the best.

Y'know, I have never bought or even used frisket, ever. I should.

Awesome show of Murasaki's forces ;) Can't wait til I'm back in the states and can catch on of these kiribans!
